Created attachment 786932 [details] Log while reproducing this bug Description of problem: Unable to create new vm when the storage pool is unitialized Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ovirt-engine commit 7af2eec6799e How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build and install 2. Add a host 3. Add a vm Actual results: On the "New virtual machine" dialog, both "Cluster" and "Based on template" popup menus are empty, but required so the vm can't be created. Expected results: Both menus should show normal content. Additional info: Workaround: Add a storage domain, then create the vm.
this sounds like by design in current system to me
But there is an inconsistency between rest api and the ui. rest api does allow creating vm without active storage domain and it can be actually quite useful for some situations (running a diskless vm from the network). what do you think?

setting target release to current version for consideration and review. please do not push non-RFE bugs to an undefined target release to make sure bugs are reviewed for relevancy, fix, closure, etc.
it's fine to have some additional functionality via REST. In GUI the use case doesn't look interesting enough
