Description of problem: During the RHV 4.1 setup process, we used cockpit for the webUI deployment of hosted engine. After entering the NFS storage domain information and clicking "OK", we were taken back to the same "Enter storage domain" setup screen. No errors were presented to let us know what was going wrong. I was able to help the customer because I knew the common errors at this stage of installation, but if they were setting this up on their own, they wouldn't have known. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cockpit-ovirt-0.10.7-0.0.21 ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.1.3.9-1 How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHEL 7.4 2. Install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup 3. Make sure cockpit is running 4. Begin cockpit-based hosted engine deployment 5. Select NFS as the storage domain 6. Configure a NFS mountpoint but don't properly set up permissions/ownership 7. Enter NFS location in cockpit UI 8. Click OK Actual results: Screen refreshes but puts the user back at the same "Please specify the full shared storage connection path to use" prompt. Expected results: The proper error message should appear on the screen telling the user they need to set the proper permissions on the NFS storage (36:36).

We are planning to improve this flow considerably in RHV 4.2 with a new wizard UX. Please track this RFE #1367457 for this. Closing this bug due to that.
