Description YunmingYang 2021-07-23 09:08:52 UTC
Description of problem:
When adding disk with "Custom path" for a VM(bus type of system disk is 'ide'), then select "Device" to "CD/DVD disc" and  select back to "Disk image file", at this time, click "Show additional options", "Bus" will be "sata". Then, click "Add", the bus of new added disk is "ide"


Version-Release number of selected components (if applicable):
cockpit-machines-249-1.el8.noarch
cockpit-249-1.el8.x86_64
libvirt-dbus-1.3.0-2.module+el8.3.0+6423+e4cb6418.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1 Import a VM with "Unknown" for its "Operating system"
2 Go to the VM detail page, then click "Add disk"
3 Switch "Source" to "Custom path"
4 Select "Device" to "CD/DVD disc"
5 Select "Device" to "Disk image file"
6 Click "Show additional options", then input Custom path
7 Click "Add"

Actual results:
1 After step 6, bus of "additional options" is "sata"
2 After step 7, the disk will be added successfully, but its bus is "ide"

Expected results:
1 After step 7, The bus will be added successfully, and its bus is "sata"

Comment 4 YunmingYang 2021-08-25 14:09:13 UTC
Test Versions:
cockpit-machines-251-1.el8.noarch
cockpit-251-1.el8.x86_64
libvirt-dbus-1.3.0-2.module+el8.3.0+6423+e4cb6418.x86_64


Test Steps:
1 Import a VM with "Unknown" for its "Operating system"
2 Go to the VM detail page, then click "Add disk"
3 Switch "Source" to "Custom path"
4 Select "Device" to "CD/DVD disc"
5 Select "Device" to "Disk image file"
6 Click "Show additional options", extend "Bus"
7 Click "Add"
8 Re-open "Add disk" dialog, then select 'Source' to "Custom path"
9 Select "Device" to "CD/DVD disc", then select back to "Disk image file", after that select "Device" to "CD/DVD disc" again
10 Click "Show additional options"
11 Click "Add"


Actual results:
1 In step 6, there is a disabled option which is "ide"
2 In step 7, the disk will be added successfully, but its bus is "ide"
3 In step 10, the "Bus" of "CD/DVD disc" is "ide"
4 In step 11, the disk will be added successfully, but its bus is "ide"


Expected results:
1 In step 6, there is no 'ide' option
2 In step 7, the disk should be added successfully, and its bus should not be "ide"
3 In step 10, the "Bus" of "CD/DVD disc" should no be "ide"
4 In step 11, the disk should be added successfullym and its bus should not be "ide"


Additional info:
I think this BZ caused by "custom path" getting bus value from the same type disks of the VM. Maybe we should disable this behavior, and just setState()


Test Results:
According to the results, there still something needed to be fixed, move 'Status' back to ASSIGNED.
