Description Linux engineering teams - Veritas 2014-08-07 09:47:58 UTC
Description of problem:
There are few limitation with RHEV which we feel must be addressed.
Listing few cases.

1. RHEVM should provide a REST api to return the xml configuration for a running VM which was used during startup.

2. RHEVM should allow to boot a virtual machine without configured harddisk, as the machine can boot via hooks.

3. QEMU should return the volume device path on the host in the scsi page 83 id for virtio-scsi emulation.

4. In add external disk option, rhevm can provide an option to add the path of the scsi device on the host. Currently there is no such option.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Can you open four different bugs here?
It will be easier to track and fix.

Liron - don't we already have a way of doing this?

Isn't this covered by bug 1063597?

We have a way for getting the configuration of a vm snapshotshot.

Possibly yes, i didn't fully understand the question. what does "in the scsi page 83" means?

I've opened bugs 1132048, 1132052, 1132054, 1132056 to track each of these respective issues individually.
Closing this one.

Comment 6 Michal Skrivanek 2014-08-22 08:34:09 UTC
change to track/use bug 1054205 instead of bug 1132052

Comment 7 Linux engineering teams - Veritas 2014-09-09 03:49:58 UTC
Thank you for opening four incidents. We have updated the respective incidents.
