Fixed In Version: cockpit-ovirt-0.14.11
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
When expanding the volume from the web console as part of day2 operation with device name `/dev/sdx`, a warning *use device name with format /dev/mapper/<WWID>* was seen even when the blacklist gluster device checkbox was enabled. In version 1.8, Red Hat recommends to ignore this warning note and proceed with the next step of deployment, as the warning was not valid. In version 1.8 Batch Update 1, this issue has been corrected and the spurious warning no longer appears.

Marking this bug for known issue.

So workaround here is to 'ignore' this error and proceed to next step of deployment
and complete the action. This warning is not legitimate. This error happens only with 
expand volume operation.
