Description Oded Ramraz 2012-07-11 07:13:49 UTC 
Description of problem:

From GUI I have option to create Posix compliant FS. I didn't found a way to do it using Rest API . 
Currently Rest API expose storage types in capabilities ( see Additional Information ) which used to be enough because data center types and storage types were equal. 
Maybe we should add data center types to capabilities as well .

Creation is possible, the problem is only that 'posix-fs' not exposed in capabilities.

Comment 2 Oded Ramraz 2012-07-11 07:53:49 UTC 
The bug is about data centers while the patch is regarding storage domains types.
Are the values are equal ? Should we add data center types to capabilities as well ?

no.
The patch addresses the problem properly.
Once we remove the limitation of having a single storage type in a DC then there will be no data center type anyway and until then storage domain types is the only type for DCs.
