Description Andrew Dahms 2014-08-19 22:20:03 UTC

The following article should be scoped for inclusion of a warning in the Administration Guide: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/897013

This bug is being raised in response to a discussion on the Customer Portal regarding deletion of snapshots: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/1120793

The underlying behavior of deleting snapshots is not clear to users, and even a simple warning could make it much clearer as to what is going on.

Comment 3 Lucy Bopf 2014-08-25 02:09:22 UTC

Peer reviewed.

The 'Important' box now appears in the topic. The addition of this information makes is clear to users that free storage space is required for snapshot deletion.

VERIFIED.
