        "${ENTITIES_USING_VNIC_PROFILE_COUNTER}"

Hi all,

I would like to ask for your help again with the following questions:

File: AppErrors
Resource ID: ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_VNIC_PROFILE_IN_USE
Strings: Cannot ${action} ${type}. Several ${entities}
(${ENTITIES_USING_VNIC_PROFILE_COUNTER}) are using this VM network
interface
profile:
${ENTITIES_USING_VNIC_PROFILE}
- Please remove it from all ${entities} that are using it and try
again.
Question:
Is "${ENTITIES_USING_VNIC_PROFILE_COUNTER}" representing the number of
entities using the VNIC profile?
</pre>
                </blockquote>
                <pre wrap="">Yes.

</pre>
                <blockquote type="cite">
                  <pre wrap="">Is it always greater than 1 or could it be 1 in some cases?
</pre>
                </blockquote>
                <pre wrap="">It can be 1 or greater.

</pre>
                <blockquote type="cite">

                </blockquote>
                <pre wrap="">Yes.

Here are 2 examples for the error when the vnic profile is used by one
or
more vms:

A vnic profile used by a single entity:
Error while executing action: Cannot remove VM network interface
profile.
Several virtual machines (1) are using this VM network interface
profile:
vm1
- Please remove it from all virtual machines that are using it and try
again.

A vnic profile used by a two entities:
Error while executing action: Cannot remove VM network interface
profile.
Several virtual machines (2) are using this VM network interface
profile:
vm1,
vm2
- Please remove it from all virtual machines that are using it and try
again.
</pre>
              </blockquote>
              <pre wrap="">Hi Moti,

Thank you very much for your answer with actual examples. It is very
helpful.

In my language, I can translate this string in a way which works whether
the entity is single or plural, but I am not sure about other supported
locales.
I will share this with other translators and if it is problematic, I
will get back to you via this mailing list.

</pre>
            </blockquote>
            <pre wrap="">Please note that there are several messages that share the same format:

ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_NETWORK_IN_USE=Cannot ${action} ${type}. Several
${entities} (${ENTITIES_USING_NETWORK_COUNTER}) are using this logical
network:\n${ENTITIES_USING_NETWORK}\n - Please remove it from all
${entities} that are using it and try again.

ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_PROVIDER_NETWORKS_USED=Cannot ${action} ${type}.
Several external networks (${NETWORK_NAMES_COUNTER}) are being used by
virtual machines and/or templates:\n${NETWORK_NAMES}\n - Please resolve
the external networks usage first and try again.
</pre>
          </blockquote>
          <pre wrap="">Thank you Moti for this extra information.
I will also pass this onto other translators.
Very much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Yuko

        <pre wrap="">
Hi Moti,

I have discussed with other translators and confirmed that all those
three strings in the same format are problematic for localization.
The current format only works if the entity is plural.
In the example (with single entity) you have given:
*
**Error while executing action: Cannot remove VM network interface
profile.**
****_Several_ **virtual machine**_s_**(1) **_are_**using this VM network
interface profile:**
**vm1**
**- Please remove it from **_all_**__**virtual machine**_s_**that are
using it and try again.*

1) It has the word "several" and "all" preceding the entity. Those
adjectives do not work with a singular noun in all languages, and it
grammatically wrong in English as well.
2) ${entities} is shown always plural even it is singular "Virtual
Machines (1)" - this is not correct.
3) Verb "are" should only be used when the nominative is plural

We are wondering if the English strings (all three) can be changed to be
grammatically correct.
</pre>
      </blockquote>
      <pre wrap="">
Is there a way they can be changed to comply to both singular and plural form ?
Or there is no escape from separating into 2 messages?
I'd rather the first option if possible.

Could you open a bug so we could keep track on it ?</pre>
    </blockquote>
    Hi Moti,<br>
    <br>
    Thank you very much for your reply.<br>
    I filed a bug: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997197">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997197</a><br>
    <br>
    I listed an option for change but that is not a complete solution
    and one problem remains.<br>
    Hope we can find a way to get it resolved.<br>
