I’ve recently upgraded from 3.5.3 to 3.5.4.2-el6. Now when I edit a VM I see a small icon to the left of some fields. It looks like an unlinked symbol. When I hover over it the following text pops up:
The field is not attached to any instance type
I see it on various fields. E.G.:
Edit Virtual Machine
- System Tab
-- Memory Size
-- Total Virtual CPUs
-- Cores per Virtual Socket
-- Virtual Sockets
- Host tab
-- The two migration option fileds
I don’t see the same icon when editing hosts, storage, networks etc.
VM live migration and restarts are all OK. I can also edit the values and the changes take effect as set.
Does anyone have any idea what this means?
It is a feature [1] :) The point is that when you pick an instance type, and you do not change any of this fields, the VM will be attached to that picked instance type (the icon will be joined). Now, when you change the picked instance type, all VMs which are attached to this instance type will be edited accordingly. [1]: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Instance_Types
Many thanks,
Simon
