It seems that for at least some disks - including iSCSI 'disks' - the "Select one or more disks this device may reside on" dialog may not be wide enough, because the disks have very silly 'Descriptions'. The dialog is only wide enough to display the 'Description' of the offending disk - the other columns (Name, Capacity and Free Space, I think) are hidden. I'm attaching two screenshots of before and after something changed related to this. The 'before' screenshot is from an openQA test on the 20171127.n.0 Rawhide compose; the 'after' screenshot is from the same test on the 20171210.n.2 compose. The 'Description' of the iSCSI disk seems to have got even longer than it was before - it looks like it went from: "IET VIRTUAL-DISK (360000000000000000e00000000010001)" to: "IET VIRTUAL-DISK 0x6000000000000000 (360000000000000000e00000000010001)" the latter being so long all the other columns get entirely squished off the dialog. So I guess you could see this as two bugs - for some bugs the 'description' seems to be fairly ridiculous, *and* when the description is ridiculously long this dialog doesn't display properly.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle. Changing version to '28'.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Still the case in current Rawhide.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to '31'.

Still valid in current F32/Rawhide, BTW.
