Description Greg Scott 2016-04-06 18:10:05 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently, when removing a VM pool, I first need to remove all the VMs in that pool in a separate operation.  In an environment with 1000+ VMs in several pools, this operation is tedious and prone to errors.  Instead, when I delete a pool, the RHEVM GUI should have a checkbox to also delete all VMs in that pool, so it happens with one user operation backed by a bunch of automation taking care of details.  This capability should also be in all APIs and shell operations, so I can delete a VM pool under program control with the option to also delete all VMs in that pool.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.6

How reproducible:
At will

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Delete a VM pool and note no option to also delete the VMs in that pool.
2.
3.

Actual results:
I have to find all the relevant VMs and delete them first, then delete the VM pool. This is true both in the RHEVM GUI and in the APIs

Expected results:
I need the option to delete the pool and its VMs in one operation, both from the GUI and API.

I had a talk with my customer about this and they like the new behavior around pool deletion starting with 3.6.  I'll clear the needsinfo flag.
