[Ovirt-devel] Re: [PATCH server] network integration into ovirt server db and wui

[Mohammed Morsi]

Based on Darryl's, Scott's, and Dan's feedback on my patch, the
following things have been identified as needing to be done for the
network component of the interface. I'm not sure all of this will be
able to be done by the end of today (unless I can get some development
help) so this list will need to be prioritized:

1. Remove 'validate' method, replace w/ 'validates_presence_of',
'validate_format_of' where we can
2. Change ManageNodeConfiguration bit, to use new network model / schema
3. Disable type selection for 'edit network' form
4. Associate vlan w/ physical_network, eg add parent_network_id to
network table, allow this to be specified via new / edit network form
(only for vlans)
5. Add ip address information to the network details pane
6. Add nic / bonding information to host details pane
7. VLANs should be associated with nics as well (seemingly small, but
potentially large change)
8. Add usages multi-select box to create / edit network form
9. Remove 'add / edit networks' link from dashboard, use tabs
10. Add 'add / remove nics' functionality and interface
11. Small cleanup fixes

>From what I see / heard, numbers 2,3, 8 are must-haves, eg my patch
can't be pushed w/ out these. The others, as important as they are, can
wait for a subsequent bug fix patch. What do you all think, taking into
consideration that we want this pushed by the end of today.
