Description Petr Horáček 2015-12-10 13:08:23 UTC

Description of problem:
Command `ovirt-shell -E 'show vm --name test_25'` fails with:
================= ERROR ================
    vm identifier or name required.
========================================
When I call it without --name, just `ovirt-shell -E 'show vm test_25'`, it's ok. --name used to work in 3.6.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ovirt-engine-cli.noarch            4.0.0.0-0.3.20151119.git489d187.fc22 @ovirt-master-snapshot
ovirt-engine-sdk-python.noarch     4.0.0.0-0.2.20151123.git8ba204b.fc22 @ovirt-master-snapshot

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. show vm --name test_25

Actual results:
Error

Expected results:
List of vm parameters

We don't plan any work on the CLI in 4.0.

Comment 3 Juan Hernández 2016-05-10 10:29:08 UTC

The --name option was never intended for this usage, the right way to get the details of an object, by name or id is the following:

  # show vm the_name_or_id

That works correctly.
