Description Marina Kalinin 2015-04-09 21:29:20 UTC
Description of problem:
Note: I am not sure what is the definition for "unregistered disks", but I believe this is how we call those. 

In order to be able using those "unregistered" disks on the import domain, it is required to register them using RestAPI ONLY. This option should be available on the UI as well.

Another problem I noticed while testing is that the disk looses its interface definition and always consider it as IDE. Even if the original disk was Virtio. This is probably not high priority to fix, however, I think it is wrong behavior.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On RHEV Setup X create a VM with 2 disks, one disk (disk1) reside on Domain A, another(disk2) on Domain B.
2. Detach Domain B from Setup X. (I guess this disk can also be any floating disk, unattached to any VM, but my customer is trying do it other way.)
3. Import Domain B into RHEV Setup Y. Storage Domain is imported successfully
4. Go to the Disks Main tab.

Actual results:
Disk disk2 is not present on the UI.
Checking on the SPM host, the disk is available under /rhev/data-center.
There is a workaround to bring the disk using RestAPI. So, after "registering" the disk, the disk shows up on the UI.

Expected results:
This "register" operation should be exposed to UI.

Indeed, it's a dup of this RFE, and the linked kbase indeed provides a solution to it.
Closing this BZ, and we can continue the prioritization discussion on bug 1138139.
