A New volume form the pool page refused, for a name with a space or a
character not allowed, redirected back with the reasons at the top of
the page and lost what was typed.
The form now posts to the pool page itself: a valid one makes the
volume and redirects as before, a refused one renders the page with
the dialog open on what was entered, the refused field marked with its
reason and focused. A pool stopped meanwhile has no dialog: its page
shows the reasons. The separate create_volume view and URL go.
The New volume, Clone image and Upload ISO dialogs of a pool set their
labels in a narrow column beside the fields and closed with a grey
Close; Clone image showed the volume's name in red and offered bare
Convert and Metadata boxes, New volume an unlabelled meta_prealloc box.
Now their labels sit above the fields, tied to them: New volume asks
for the name, with what it may hold, then the size and the format side
by side and "Preallocate metadata (qcow2)"; Clone image names the
volume in monospace, asks for the name of the copy and offers "Convert
it to another format", its format and the same preallocation; Upload
ISO asks for the ISO file and says to keep the page open while the
browser sends it. Each closes with Cancel and its action; the posted
fields are unchanged.
- A secret is in use when a VM names it in a disk, a host device or its
vTPM, or a pool in its source, by UUID or by its usage within the usage
type, as they run and as saved. The vTPM, host devices and pools' saved
definitions were not checked before.
- A Ceph key is taken in base64, as `ceph auth get-key` prints it; any other
value is a password or passphrase stored as typed, spaces included.
- A new secret takes its value at once; a value refused leaves no secret.
- TLS and vTPM secrets can be created; the usage has no length limit.
- Every POST redirects; the list is read once and only with its users; a
secret, VM or pool gone meanwhile is left out.
- domain_trees() is shared by the in-use checks of secrets, network filters,
networks and pools; the storage page's Ceph secret picker reads the same
listing.
- The pool list is a card per pool, two to a row, as the host
Overview's Hardware and Software cards: its name with Active or
Stopped and Autostart badges in the header, then its type, its path
(an RBD pool's Ceph pool), its volume count and its space as the
Overview shows it (computes/pool_bar.html, without the name again);
a stopped pool's space is unavailable, not zero.
wvmStorages.get_storages_info gives the path, autostart and percent
used, which computes.views.host_pools computed for itself.
- A pool's page has a Space card (percent, used of size, of what: the
filesystem of its path, its volume group or the Ceph cluster, which
other pools may share; free) and a Pool card (state, autostart,
type, path) instead of a two-column list mixing facts and forms.
Start or Stop is its heading's button; autostart and deleting a
stopped pool are in its menu; the confirmations stay.
- The volume table drops the row number; a volume's capacity and what
it has allocated share a column hidden on a phone; its format is a
badge; its actions are one group, Clone and a menu with Delete,
named for the volume.
- "New pool", "New volume" and "Upload ISO" are labelled buttons
instead of bare green pluses; their dialogs' titles name them.
- The New pool dialog is one form (design reviewed with Codex): the
pool's type as radio cards, as the VM create page chooses its disk
source (their style moves to webvirtcloud.css), one name, and only
the chosen type's fields, the others hidden and disabled.
- A directory's or a share's mount path follows the name
(/var/lib/libvirt/<name>) until it is edited: no default path of
another pool any more.
- ISO images is a directory preset named iso; when the host has an
iso pool, a card links to it instead.
- Ceph offers the host's Ceph secrets by their names, not every
secret by UUID; without one it says so and links the Secrets page.
- LVM asks to agree that the device is erased, the server too.
- AddStgPool checks each type's fields, a name or a path another
pool has, an RBD secret that is not one of the host's Ceph secrets,
and the names "." and "..". A refused pool, or one libvirt refuses,
opens the dialog again with what was entered, the reasons beside
the fields and focus on the first; the audit row for a taken name
stays.
- The page lists the volumes first: that refreshes the pool, and libvirt
measures a pool's space only when it is refreshed, so the size and
usage shown were as of the previous refresh.
- A space that cannot be read says so instead of 0 bytes, and the
pool's status, read from the same pool info, no longer fails the
page after it; a stopped pool says its space and volumes are
unavailable until it is started, instead of 0 bytes and nothing.
- The API's pool is measured after the same refresh, and a stopped
pool lists no volumes there instead of failing.
- A clone the job refuses (a name in use, a volume gone) is a message
on the page, not a server error.
- An ISO image is recognised by its name (storages.jobs.is_iso):
libvirt calls its format raw, so the template's "iso" check never
disabled its Clone button. The clone job refuses one too; the upload
uses the same rule.
- One clone dialog serves every volume, filled and reset by the button
that opens it, instead of one dialog per volume in the page; its
fields have labels and its title names the dialog.
- Volume rows are searched by name only (data-search), with a message
when none matches, in a live region for screen readers; names show
in full. The search script loads only
with the volume table: on a stopped pool's page it failed for want
of a search box. An empty pool says "This pool has no volumes".
- The unused wvmStorage.get_volumes_details goes: update_volumes is
the same.
- libvirt refuses to refresh a pool while a volume is cloned in it. The pool
page, the volume list of the VM and create pages, upload planning and the
API no longer fail on that refusal; they use the list libvirt has.
- A new pool that does not start (unreachable NFS server, a device LVM
cannot use) is undefined again, so the name is free for another try.
- A pool reporting no size, such as an iSCSI pool without LUNs, shows its
page instead of a division error.
- Each clone dialog shows its own format and metadata rows, so a format
is never shown without Convert ticked and silently ignored.
- The new-volume size is labelled in GiB and is at least 1; an inactive
pool shows no "None" volume count.
