iirc, that's the behavior in 3.1, which can be improved in a future version (adding a checkbox to the dialog about for 'activate').

what's the different between network and disk in this matter ? since for network object it works as expected.

The difference that in network it is just 2 actions: attach and plug
For disk it is 'create, attach and plug'
Comment 4 Allon Mureinik 2013-03-28 11:41:16 UTC 
The activation can be done in the endAction of the command.

Need to think whether we want to just change the behaviour, or leave it as a non-default option so it won't break customer's pre-existing automated flows (e.g., REST, automated tests, etc.)

Comment 12 Aharon Canan 2014-03-06 09:54:00 UTC 
Verified using 3.4 av2 (with RHEL guest)
TCMS run - https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/run/119325/

please be aware to bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1055403

(in case that Vm state is not up, the disk will be created and attached but won't be activated - audit logs appears)
