Hi,
I started to work on new engine UI feature - VM icons
(http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VM_Icons). It allows to customize Userportal icons of VMs
and Templates using uploaded images. Any comments are welcome.

Hi Jakub,
Is this also expected to affect VM pools? I.e. will I be able
to associate an icon with:
- the VM Pool object, which will affect the icon for a pool
when displayed in the user portal?
- all VMs created within a VM Pool (i.e. via the Add/Edit
Pool dialog), which will affect the icon for all pooled-VMs
once displayed in the user portal (and can this icon
potentially be overridden for each VM individually via the
'Edit VM' dialog)?

Thanks,
Einav

Hi Einav,
current plan is that icon of will not be editable and will be simply copied form the
template the pool is based on. I believe that there is not much need to edit icon of pool
since pool are not directly visualized using icons in Userportal.
AFAIK pools (even those containing multiple VMs) are displayed as one entity in
Userportal. So icon of the pool will be used. Internally there will be an icon stored in
each VM object in case of detaching from pool. Editing the icon will only be possible
after detaching.
(This is only first shot. It's not supposed to be comprehensive but rather small
coherent step to improve user experience. Of course there is plenty of room for
enhancements.)
Best regards.
Jakub

Thanks, Jakub,
so regardless of VM pools: I understand that a VM will inherit the icon
from the Template it is based on by default, with an option to override
it, obviously (within the New/Edit VM dialog)?
(haven't noticed anything about it in the wiki page)

Hi Einav,
exactly. VMs inherit icons form Templates and their icons can be later edited. I've
added some info regarding icon inheritance and pool on wiki.

Hi all,
some compatibility issues appeared regarding required browser technologies: dataUrl and
File API. Please review updated wiki
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VM_Icons#Compatibility_issues.

After a discussion with Michal the proposal was changed again.
* Icons should now be stored in separate DB table to prevent data duplication.
* Both default and user defined icons are stored in database. GWT ClientBundles no longer
used for icons.
Please review updated wiki http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VM_Icons
