QA Note: Two GUI operations trigger this new functionality; It should happen when a file system is resized (I mean REALLY resized...like adding 20 or 30 Gig), and it should also happen if extents from one physical volume are moved to another physical volume. As well as checking that the operations execute properly, attention must be paid to whether the progress bar exits properly, and doesn't just keep bouncing back and forth for days :-) Finally, when the progress bar is doing its thing, the app should be hibernating otherwise...no other task can be started until this task completes and the progress bar exits.
QA Note: Progress bars are triggered at every action performed, so application should never be in a frozen state without progress bar being displayed.
I did verify that the progress bar does come up for long running actions. I can still get the GUI to hang if there are lots of PVs or LVs. I think this is while the GUI is rendering the cylinders. Verified in 1.0.5-1.0.
