Description Andrew Dahms 2013-12-04 06:46:15 UTC
The 'New virtual machine' and 'Edit virtual machine' settings have been updated since 3.2, and the order of these settings in the settings explained sections of the Administration Guide and Power User Portal Guide must both be updated.

This will involve looking at each of the topics that outline these settings and matching them with the new designs, changing the order of anything that is out of place and creating an explanation of any new settings.

As an example, the 'data center' and 'host cluter' options previously available in the General tab are now no longer there and must be edited.
