    Merge pull request #17306 from AlonaKaplan/vlan_description

    Changing the description of the 'vlan' field in provision/network
    (cherry picked from commit 9f7f72cdc7885ebb90a414411e6438a1b8576b8e)

    Fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1578393

Tested on CFME-5.9.3/RHV-4.2.2.5

Running the VM provision request,
mentioned in the bug description (with "vlan" : "ovirtmgmt")
give now this error:

{
"error":{
"kind": "internal_server_error",
"message": "Provision failed for the following reasons:\n'Network/Virtual NIC Profile ID' is required",
"klass": "RuntimeError"
}
}

I think the naming is still confusing: 

The field name in the UI/REST api request is "vlan".
However,
for api version 3, "network" is expected,
for api version 4, "vnic_profile_id" is expected,

Can we change this field's name 
for api version 3, name it "network",
for api version 4, name it "vnic_profile_id",

and have the error contain the same name, used in the request: "network"/"vnic_profile_id"?

Thanks.

Hi Leo,

Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1574351 handles the issue.

It will be possible to set the "profile_name (network_name)" instead of the profile id.

Alona,

After implementing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1574351,

If a value for "vlan" will not be provided, or it's value will not be valid,
will the error still remain:

{
"error":{
"kind": "internal_server_error",
"message": "Provision failed for the following reasons:\n'Network/Virtual NIC Profile ID' is required",
"klass": "RuntimeError"
}
}

or will it change into something like

{
"error":{
"kind": "internal_server_error",
"message": "Provision failed for the following reasons:\n'Network/profile_name (network_name)' is required",
"klass": "RuntimeError"
}
}

Thanks.

Will change to -
"Provision failed for the following reasons:\n'Network/Virtual NIC Profile ID or 'profile_name (network_name)'".

Is it ok?

}

This is the expected error.

It is not ideal error message, 
since the field in restapi body is called "vlan",
while the error refer to "Network",
but this is understandable, considering this field serve all providers,
and will require a cross platform change.
