Description Evan 2016-09-08 09:23:53 UTC 
Description of problem:
I use "/ovirt-engine/api/events?search=sortby%20time%20asc%20max%204%20page%201" wants the event page, but fails, all the event are displayed, and only 1 page. what should I do?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
oVirt engine : 3.6.7.5-1.el6

How reproducible:
/ovirt-engine/api/events?search=sortby%20time%20asc%20max%204%20page%201
Comment 1 Juan Hernández 2016-09-08 13:05:47 UTC 
The "max" parameter isn't part of the search language, but a separate matrix parameter. In your particular case it is just ignored, thus you get all the results, as that that is the default when "max" isn't specified. If you only want to get 4 results per page, for example, you should send a request like this:

  GET /ovirt-engine/api/events;max=4?search=sortby%20time%20asc%20page%201

I'm closing as NOTABUG because I think that there is nothing to fix. If you think that something needs to be changed then reopen the bug and explain it.
