Description Lucy Bopf 2016-12-14 05:18:55 UTC
The important box and procedure in the following section were reported by Ribu Abraham (Technical Support Engineer) as unclear:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/paged/administration-guide/83-preparing-and-adding-local-storage

The important box notes that the path for local storage in RHVH must be within the /var directory, but the procedure below uses /data. It may be unclear to users that the same procedure, with /var prepended to each command, will work for RHVH. The procedure should be updated to include RHVH-specific substeps.

Based on an initial SME comment in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352435#c9 the important box may require some further context:

"From RHVH 4.0 on a local storage domain must be within /var or in any subpath or the local storage domain must be put on a mount point which is backed by another volume or device"

Comment 2 Lucy Bopf 2018-01-08 04:33:39 UTC
Moving to 'NEW' and to the default assignee to be re-triaged as resources allow.

Comment 3 Lucy Bopf 2018-02-13 04:31:30 UTC
Assigning to Billy for review.
