doc text looks good.

Comment 4 Sahina Bose 2016-02-25 08:35:06 UTC

Since there's a limitation in returning the device list in case of device errors, the least we can do is to inform the user that there is a problem.

This bug can be modified to do that.  What do you think?

Comment 5 RamaKasturi 2016-02-25 09:59:13 UTC

yes, it would be good to inform the user when there is a problem.

Comment 6 Sahina Bose 2016-04-27 06:28:40 UTC

Ramesh, are we handling exception and informing user of error currently?

Comment 7 Sahina Bose 2018-01-29 15:10:51 UTC

Thank you for your report. This bug is filed against a component for which no further new development is being undertaken
