Blivet provides only partial device details on any major disk failure. The Storage Devices tab does not show some storage devices if the partition table is corrupted. Workaround: Clean the corrupted partition table using the 'dd' command. All storage devices are then synced to the UI.

doc text looks good.
Comment 4 Sahina Bose 2016-02-25 08:35:06 UTC 
Since there's a limitation in returning the device list in case of device errors, the least we can do is to inform the user that there is a problem.

This bug can be modified to do that.  What do you think?
Comment 5 RamaKasturi 2016-02-25 09:59:13 UTC 
yes, it would be good to inform the user when there is a problem.
Comment 6 Sahina Bose 2016-04-27 06:28:40 UTC 
Ramesh, are we handling exception and informing user of error currently?
