Description Ahmed El-Rayess 2021-12-20 18:57:56 UTC
Description of problem:
the disk interface description is incorrect, when adding a new disk to a VM you are presented with 3 options, virtio, sata and scsi.

the scsi option is actually virtio-scsi not the standard scsi interface. which means that it still requires the virtio drivers to be loaded on guest VMs and it actually performs the same if not better than virtio.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add a new disk to a VM
2. check the description in the interface drop down menu
3.

Actual results:
scsi is stating incorrect description

Expected results:
show the description as "Paravirtualized iSCSI HDD driver offers similar functionality to the virtio-block device, with some additional enhancements. In particular, this driver supports adding hundreds of devices, and names devices using the standard SCSI device naming scheme."
