Description Raymond Mancy 2014-01-30 05:37:17 UTC
Description of problem:

See title

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to power config page of system form. Change nothing
2. Click on 'Save Power Changes'
3.

Actual results:

'Updated Power' appears as a flash message
 Three new entries are added, one for each of:
  * reprovision_distro_tree
  * release_action
  * power_type

The above will repeat on successive clicks of 'Save Power Changes'.

Expected results:

No flash message, no addition to the system activity logs.

Comment 2 Raymond Mancy 2014-01-30 06:49:21 UTC
There are a couple of issues here. The issue with the power type is simple, it's comparing a string and an int on the controller code. 

The reprovision distro and release action are not even checked as to whether or not there has been a change. Even once the code is changed so that they are checked, we should probably be supplying a default (if there is one available in the case of the distro) so we don't get the 'None -> 'PowerOff' etc.

Right, we are treating None (NULL) distinct from '' (empty string), and so we are logging it as a change even if you just save the form leaving the fields empty.
