[Engine-devel] restapi: Storage-Domain creation - Used Luns
We need to enable passing 'used' luns for new storage-domain creation (used = the lun is part of a VG). We need a way in rest-api to explicitly approve the use of such luns. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good name for such a flag, a name that conveys: "use the given luns even if they are part of a VG?" Thanks, Ori.

why not just force?

force is not enough informative (also it usually used on /destroy based operations)

SHARED_LUN?
We won't be sharing them, we'll be overwriting them. Maybe something like overwrite or force ?

So does the lun still belongs to the VG? How about the VG operation to acess the lun while the new storage-domain is accessing the lun?

I'm fine with either one (force / overwrite) or forceDelete as well or forceOverride.

yep, the key thing here is that we need to scare the user so it's very clear that this could be destructive.
