Description of problem: When a user selects an interface that is not recommened, the dropdown doesn't display this intarface as such anymore. Example: Virtio is selected (marked with ->), sata is considered not recommened by the used common template: -> Virtio sata --- Not Recommended --- scsi Now user decides to select sata, dropdownl looks like: Virtio -> sata scsi When not recommended interface is selected, there is a warning displayed below the dropdown, but the dropdown item doesn't have the --- Not Recommended --- suffix, which seems a bit confusing and inconsistent to me. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.4 How reproducible: 100%
Created attachment 1663112 [details] Virtio selected
Created attachment 1663113 [details] sata selected
This makes sense to me. We have on the design side an effort to review the creation flow and make updates around this. I think we can go one step further and mark options as recommended to avoid choosing the wrong option.
Once the disk bus is chosen from the dropdown list it will not have a `not recommended` label since a warning message will appear below the dropdown, which than the 'not recommended' label will be redundant. Matt, this is a good idea! I sent a patch to mark only the `recommended` buses instead of the not recommended ones.
Moving back to assigned as the fix hasn't been backported to release-4.4 branch.
retargeting this bug to 4.5 where the fix actually landed and created a 4.4 clone for the backport.
verified on 4.5.0-0.nightly-2020-03-29-224016.
