Bug 733365

Work has been ongoing, consider this fixed as of revision 4982.

This general feature has involved two development areas:  one, an integration of cumin and wallaby at the API level so that information from wallaby can be pulled into cumin, and two, presentation of available information and operation on screen.

At present, the planned features all work.  Other BZs may be opened if necessary to address performance issues.

We still need to post information here on how to test.

Here's a few notes on where the functionality can be found.  If you have any questions, please contact me.

1)  The node tagging functionality can be found under the Grid::Configuration tab.  The table there will contain all of the tags that are currently in the wallaby configure store.  

2) You can create new tags via the "Create tags" link.  

3) Tags can be deleted by checking the tags that you want to delete and then using the "Delete tags" button that is above the tags list table.

4) When performing any action with tagging (create, remove, apply to nodes, apply features), the status of the task will appear in the yellow "invocation banner" at the top of the cumin interface.  Even after an operation gets the "OK" status, it may take a short time for the changes to be reflected in the display.  This is due to the way we are caching the wallaby information.  Each action will trigger the cache to be reloaded, but it may not finish for a few seconds.  Most changes should show up in a matter of seconds though.  Any "long" waits should be brought to the attention of the development team.

5) From the view of a tag (after clicking on a tag name from the tags table), you have options to "Edit hosts" or "Edit features"

    Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field
    accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team.
    
    New Contents:
1)  The node tagging functionality can be found under the Grid::Configuration
tab.  The table there will contain all of the tags that are currently in the
wallaby configure store.  

2) You can create new tags via the "Create tags" link.  

3) Tags can be deleted by checking the tags that you want to delete and then
using the "Delete tags" button that is above the tags list table.

4) When performing any action with tagging (create, remove, apply to nodes,
apply features), the status of the task will appear in the yellow "invocation
banner" at the top of the cumin interface.  Even after an operation gets the
"OK" status, it may take a short time for the changes to be reflected in the
display.  This is due to the way we are caching the wallaby information.  Each
action will trigger the cache to be reloaded, but it may not finish for a few
seconds.  Most changes should show up in a matter of seconds though.  Any
"long" waits should be brought to the attention of the development team.

5) From the view of a tag (after clicking on a tag name from the tags table),
you have options to "Edit hosts" or "Edit features"

Cumin versions:
cumin-0.1.5068-1.el5.noarch
cumin-0.1.5068-1.el6.noarch

Deleting tags:
Don't select any tag and click delete -> empty confirmation window is displayed, after clicking on submit message "Delete tags: OK" is displayed and no tag is deleted.
-> can we display some error/warning?

"invocation banner":
Invocation banner never disappear. User must click on "dismiss" in order to get rid of them.
-> can we set some timer on this?

We would need a separate RFE for a time on the invocation banners.  This would be a general feature that would apply to all task banners.  We've chatted about this before.

Regarding #5 above:  

Deleting tags:
Don't select any tag and click delete -> empty confirmation window is
displayed, after clicking on submit message "Delete tags: OK" is displayed and
no tag is deleted.
-> can we display some error/warning?

Yes, the 0 selected case should be handled gracefully.  There should be no yellow banner given if there were no tags selected.

The fix for this is in revision 5096 on trunk.


Choosing "Delete" with no tags selected will no longer bring up the delete form.  This is consistent with the behavior on the Hold/Release/Edit jobs functionality.

Verify:

Cumin versions:
cumin-0.1.5098-1.el5
cumin-0.1.5098-1.el6

Test plan:
- Grid::Configuration tab
- table there contain all of the tags that are currently in the
wallaby configure store.  
- Create new tags via the "Create tags" link.  
- delete tag by checking the tag that you want to delete and then
using the "Delete tags" button that is above the tags list table
- Choosing "Delete" with no tags selected will no longer bring up the delete
form.  This is consistent with the behavior on the Hold/Release/Edit jobs
functionality.
- When performing any action with tagging (create, remove, apply to nodes,
apply features), the status of the task will appear in the yellow "invocation
banner" at the top of the cumin interface. 
- Most changes should show up in a matter of seconds.
- Invocation banner never disappear. User must click on "dismiss" in order to get
rid of them - RFE - Bug 750196
