During the development of PPC64 support in the engine, we faced some UX iss= ues regarding the default Cluster (that Cluster with empty processor name). Currently, oVirt engine allows the default Cluster to contain empty process= or name, and the administrator can add VMs and/or Templates to it. The proc= essor name can be assigned later, editing the cluster or assigning a valid = host to it. During the implementation of PPC64 support on the engine, the field "archit= ecture" was added to Clusters, VMs and Templates entities. So we have the following questions regarding how the UI should behave: - Shall we keep allowing the administrator to assign VMs and Templates to t= he Cluster with no processor name or assigned architecture ? -> If we have an "yes" for the question above: -- We will have to assign the architecture to the Cluster base= d on the OS of the first assigned VM, and the processor name could be defi= ned the same way as currently ... editing the Cluster or assigning a compat= ible Host to it. -- The VM creation popup will have to be able = to indicate the architecture of each OS ... some OSes have the same name, a= nd it may get ambiguous since the Cluster architecture is still undefined a= t that point (before the first VM get already created). Thanks! Regards.
