Hi Samuel,
We don't have multiple selection implemented in Kimchi yet.
There are some discussions about that, but, today, each resource has its
own "Actions" drop down.
Thinking about that, I'd suggest to follow this. In the storage volume
list view, the "Actions" menu would be displayed in each line (similar
to what we have in Guest, Templates, Storage pools and Network). And in
the galley view, we should follow the same we have for Guests and Templates.
I understand the multiple selection is a requested feature, but we need
first discuss on how to implement it and follow the same guideline
across the whole application.

Hi team,
In the final design spec for Storage Management we have two view modes
for disks like we have in Guests and Templates. It also features a
filter input and sort button, as well a new drop-down button for
Volume management but there isn’t any UI feedback for Volume
selection. In the other hand, the old mockups for this screen features
a checkbox and a green outline when the user selects the volume in
gallery view mode. Here are my proposals:
Keep the checkbox in the list/table view and hide it with Gallery view;
Green outline like the other style used when selecting a Template in
the modal window for Gallery view;
Disable Action dropdown-button when nothing is selected.
Questions:
What are the formats to convert the files to?
There is no option/feature to convert the storage volume to a new
format. So you can ignore the mockup which has it as a valid action.
The actions allowed in a storage volume is: delete, clone, resize and
wipe. Some of those actions may be not allowed depending on storage pool
type.
The 'Add' storage volume action is displayed in the storage pool level.
Would be good to move it to the storage volume level to follow the same
approach for the other resources? Any suggestion?
Regarding volume management, where is the full spec for volume
actions
such as create, delete, clone, resize and wipe? Should we append these
actions to the Activate/Deactivate and Undefine dropdown?
Activate/Deactivate and Undefine options are storage *pool* actions. And
they are not related to storage *volume*
So we will need a new Actions menu specific for storage volume actions.
Thanks,
Samuel
