RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
For me, the boxed '-' to the right of the single disk wasn't obvious; I thought it might be a drop down or something, clicking it removed the disk from the VM with no confirmation or anything; it seems too easy to break a VM.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cockpit-machines-197.3-1.el8.noarch
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a VM
2. Show a VM/disks tab
3. Wonder what the boxed '-' is to the right of the disk
4. Click it. oops
Actual results:
Disk is removed from VM
Expected results:
Some how make it more obvious that's going to change the VM and/or ask me.
Additional info:
This was addressed by:
commit 7e391d18dc0640a15533a925000b7817d724fe91
Author: Simon Kobyda <skobyda>
Date: Tue Jul 23 10:24:39 2019 +0200
machines: Change disk actions design
$ git describe 7e391d18dc0640a15533a925000b7817d724fe91

So after release 204 the [-] button ws replaced with a [Detach] button.
We probably need to have a dialog in addition, for the operation confirmation, but I think the current fix addresses this issue.
There is now a confirmation dialog:
commit deb75755ffa79e1e8819448af439757898df9936
Author: Simon Kobyda <skobyda>
Date: Tue Aug 27 18:27:21 2019 +0200
machines: Use Delete component for deletion of network and disks
Closes #12661
Fixed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1753319
Verified with packages:
cockpit-machines-208-1.el8.noarch
libvirt-dbus-1.2.0-3.module+el8.1.0+4066+0f1aadab.x86_64
Steps:
1. Create a VM
2. Show a VM/disks tab
3. Click "Remove" to the right of the disk
There will be a dialog to let user confirm to remove the disk, click Remove and the disk is removed successfully.
So verified.
