             Summary: Error on dialog leads to having to re-enter data
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-1435
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1435
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: UI
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.1.0, 4.2.0
         Environment: Chrome on Mac OS X 10.8.2
            Reporter: Mike Tutkowski
             Fix For: 4.2.0


I went into the "Add Primary Storage" dialog.

I left the default selection for Zone, Pod, and Cluster (although it was my 
mistake to not change the Cluster).

I entered a name, protocol, etc.

I clicked the OK button.

The "Add Primary Storage" dialog was closed and an error message was displayed.

Some problems here:

1) The error text was fairly useless ("Failed to add storage pool").  There was 
no indication of what I entered incorrectly.

2) I don't think we intend on using the term "storage pool" in the GUI.  We 
probably should have said "primary storage."

3) To fix the issue, I had to re-open the "Add Primary Storage" dialog and fill 
in all of the info again (correcting the Cluster).  It would have been way 
nicer if this error message would have appeared on top of the "Add Primary 
Storage" dialog.

I believe this kind of a problem is prevalent in the GUI...not just a problem 
with this one scenario.
