Test Version:
redhat-virtualization-host-4.1-0.20170104.0
imgbased-0.9.2-0.1.el7ev.noarch

1.no thin pool

Test Steps:
1) Install RHVH 4.1 via interactive anaconda.
2) Enter MANUAL PARTITIONING page via choosing "I will configure partitioning" in the INSTALLATION DESTINATION page.
3) Select partitioning scheme as LVM, not LVM Thin Provisioning.
4) Click "Click here to create them automatically".
5) Finish the remained steps and wait to see the error window popping up.

Test Results:
A window is popped up at the end of installation but before reboot. There is an error message at the beginning of the window saying:
[ERROR] LVM Thin Provisioning partitioning scheme is required.
For autoinstall via Kickstart with LVM Thin Provisioning check options: --thinpool and --growPlease consult documentation for details

2. no separate /var

Test Steps:
1) Install RHVH 4.1 via interactive anaconda.
2) Enter MANUAL PARTITIONING page via choosing "I will configure partitioning" in the INSTALLATION DESTINATION page.
3) Delete existing partitions if needed.
4) Select partitioning scheme as LVM Thin Provisioning.
5) Add partitions manually using the "+" icon at the lower left corner. Add /, /boot and swap, don't add /var.
6) Finish the remained steps and wait to see the error window popping up.

Test Results:
A window is popped up at the end of installation but before reboot. There is an error message at the bottom of the window saying:
It's required /var as separate mountpoint!
Please check documentation for more details!

So the bug is fixed, change bug status to VERIFIED.
