Re: [Engine-devel] Couple of small Feature Requests
Hi,

Would like to make a couple of small feature requests.
1) Allow for the SPICE or VNC password to be set in the UI by admin's
or power users.
Benefit: (Assumes spice SSL has been disabled) allows user or admin to
set a password for access by a standalone remote session via vncviewer
or remote-viewer or the spice html5 implementation which is WIP, or
standalone HW thin client
- This may also assume that vdsm is running with SSL disabled as well
to have had vdsm make the neccesary changes to the qemu spice
configuration
Drawback: users can choose repetitive and/or weak passwords. Generating
a new random password for each connection is the best thing from
security POV in my opinion.
2) Display currently configured OR generated password and IP/Port for
either VNC or SPICE console of the VM within the PUP and Admin UI
Benefit: At the very least a standalone remote client can be used to
connect once the password and IP/PORT is known for spice or VNC
- Currently VNC will display a dialog that shows the this info but it
would be more useful to have it displayed in the UI given proper
privilege

3) Display the UUID of a VM in the Admin UI (similar to the how the
disks tab breaks down and shows DISK UUID mappings)
- Benefit: Easier for administrators to map UUID to VM config file
data in the data stores or export domains
IMO full uuid should be displayed in General subtab only because it's
too long to have it as a column.
It would be nice to see it in a column though in some shortened form
because it could probably enable relaxing of
unique-name-of-VM-in-whole-setup restriction.
