Console settings dialog in Webadmin and User Portal
Owner
- Name: Frank Kobzik (Fkobzik)
- Email: fkobzik@redhat.com
Description/status
This feature has these aims:
- to extract the console settings dialog from User Portal and use it in Webadmin as well - MERGED
- to enhance this dialog with additional options that reflect recently added oVirt features, there are:
- to make use of browser local storage to save configuration of the dialog per-VM - DONE
Limitations
- this feature will not allow changing console type from VNC to SPICE and vice versa (on running VM) as this affects the VM entity and requires VM restart
Benefit to oVirt
This feature will allow quick changing of console parameters from frontend.
Testing
Mission 1 - Test dialog functionality
- Create 2 VMs with SPICE and VNC display protocol, run them.
- Open Console Option dialog for them and then try selecting various combinations of options for the dialog and then connect to VM .
Mission 2 - Testing options persistence
- Open Console Options dialog for a VM
- Change some options, click OK
- Refresh the browser window (to reinitialize gwt app)
- Open Console Options dialog for that VM again
- Check if previously selected options are selected now.
