A running VM got its new CD-ROM on SCSI, the one bus the panel could plug
in then, and Windows does not see a virtio-scsi drive before the driver
on that ISO is installed. Add CD-ROM is now a dialog that chooses the bus
and the ISO: a running VM takes USB, first, which every guest sees and
which hot-plugs, or SCSI; a shut-off one SATA (IDE on pc), SCSI or USB.
libvirt has no empty USB drive, so a USB CD-ROM takes its ISO when it is
added and is detached instead of ejected, also while the VM runs.
A USB CD-ROM is a CD drive on QEMU's usb-bot only. Where QEMU has none
(RHEL 9), libvirt took usb-storage, which shows the guest a hard disk
that Windows does not read; the drive now asks for usb-bot, and such a
host refuses it with libvirt's message.
Settings > Disk was a bold title with an unlabelled "+", a CD-ROM row
in an input group, and a table whose actions were four alike icons.
The owner chose this layout from three rendered options:
- Removable media: each CD-ROM drive a card with its device, bus and
image, the ISO select and Mount (or Unmount), and Detach; "Add
CD-ROM" by the heading.
- Disks: a card each; one disk spans the row, two or more sit side by
side from md, and the device details are capped at 32rem so values
stay near their labels. The capacity large,
the used size, the pool and the source path, the device's settings
under "Device details" (they were in a popover), and labelled Edit,
Move, Detach and Delete (danger) in its footer; "Add disk" by the
heading.
- While the VM runs, "Add CD-ROM" adds the drive on the SCSI bus, and
a SCSI drive can be detached: IDE and SATA drives cannot be plugged
into or out of a running VM, SCSI ones can. Adding a drive was
disabled while the VM ran. One line says so, and why detaching other
drives and detaching or deleting disks waits for a shutdown, instead
of each button alone being greyed.
The forms, their fields and actions are unchanged. The edit dialog of each
disk is titled with its device, and its fields' ids carry the disk's
number: the dialogs of two disks had the same ids, and the title was not
the dialog's label.
131 test modules sat next to the code they test; instances alone had
51 of them beside views.py and utils.py. They move into a
tests/ package per app, and the JavaScript checks into
webvirtcloud/tests/js. Each non-empty tests.py becomes tests/test_views.py;
the empty generated stubs are removed.
Imports of the app's own modules become absolute, paths built from
__file__ go one level up, the live helper is instances.tests.livetest,
and coverage omits */tests/*. The suite discovers the same 960 tests as
before.
