The create forms of networks and storage pools checked the new name
against the host's list of networks or pools, but that list holds one
dict per object, so the name never matched and the check never fired;
libvirt refused the duplicate with its own wording. The check now
compares names: the page shows its own message, nothing is sent to
libvirt, and the Logs page gets a failed row "...: add: name already
in use".
The Logs page now records every change an admin makes to a compute's
libvirt objects, with the compute's name in the host column:
- networks: add, start, stop, delete, autostart, DHCP range, fixed
addresses, QoS and XML edits;
- storage pools: add, start, stop, delete, autostart, from web and
API; volumes: add and delete (web and API), clone and ISO upload;
- host interfaces: add, start, stop, delete;
- secrets: add, set value (never the value), delete;
- network filters: add, clone, delete, XML edits, rules and
references.
A refused or failed change is a failed row with its reason (libvirt
text through safe_text). The volume clone and upload jobs write their
row when they end; a refused submission is a failed row at once. A
volume row names the volume libvirt created (a dir pool adds .qcow2 or
.img). Volume create or delete through the API on an inactive pool
(409) is a failed row.
Network filters: the rows read "Network filter f1: add" instead of
"f1 network filter is created", and their host is the compute's name
instead of its hostname. A duplicate name or UUID no longer raises a
bare exception, and a filter XML that cannot be parsed no longer ends
in UnboundLocalError.
