Mike, I do not think users can select only one of them, as they are implemented on different sides. Have you investigated the parameters other storage devices support, besides min/max/burst IOPS? You'd better add all possible fields in your implementation.
What do you think about this? Hypersivor IOPS is fixed, and there is a drop-down box which includes all supported storage vendors. If users select "SolidFire", min/max/burst IOPS will appear. If users select other vendors, relevant fields will appear. Actually I still insist that it is better to add the storage-related fields in another table. -Wei 2013/6/10 Mike Tutkowski <mike.tutkow...@solidfire.com> > Here is my thinking: > > Two radio buttons (whatever we want to call them): > > 1) Hypervisor IOPS > 2) Storage IOPS > > Leave them both un-checked by default. > > If the user checks one or the other, the relevant fields appear. > > > On Mon, Jun 10, 2013 at 1:38 PM, Mike Tutkowski < > mike.tutkow...@solidfire.com> wrote: > > > What do you think, Wei? > > > > Should we come up with a way for only one feature (yours or mine) to be > > used at a time on the new Disk Offering dialog? > > > > Since most storage-side provisioned IOPS don't break it down into > separate > > read and write categories, I think that's the way to go (only one feature > > or the other). > > > > Any suggestions from a usability standpoint how we want to implement > this? > > It could be as simple as a radio button to turn on your feature and mine > > off or vice versa. > > > > Thanks! > > > > > > On Mon, Jun 10, 2013 at 1:33 PM, John Burwell <jburw...@basho.com> > wrote: > > > >> Mike, > >> > >> I agree -- I can't image a situation where you would want to use IOPS > >> provisioned by both the hypervisor and storage.
