AFAIU, there should be no input from the user in order to clone a VM.
This adds complexity to the operation, which I think it's Kimchi's
opposite goal. IMO, the clone operation should work entirely without
user input.
Yeap, I think we have an agreement on it.
On those UI mockups, Yu Xin proposed to display a new dialog only when
user needs to change the storage pool to do the clone - for example when
the target pool is full or if it is iSCSI or SCSI.
I've just re-read this mail thread and noticed we haven't decided how to
proceed in those cases.
I agree with you, we should require as less as possible input from user.
IMO We could always fallback to the default pool in those cases and if
the default pool is full we raise an error.
