Shanker Balan created CLOUDSTACK-4957:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: ISO/Template registration "OS Type" drop down list should
be depend on hypervisor support
Key: CLOUDSTACK-4957
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4957
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: UI
Affects Versions: 4.2.0
Reporter: Shanker Balan
Priority: Minor
To register a ISO or a template, one must choose the operating system
represented by the template/ISO from the “OS Type” drop down list. If the
“Type” is not listed, one must choose “other".
However, the “OS Type” list is hypervisor dependent. For example, FreeBSD is
not a supported type for XenServer and neither is Apple Mac OS X. But the full
list is presented anyway. LXC won't support non-Linux templates either.
Many a times users have chosen an OS Type only to have ISO creation fail on
XenServer (or on LXC).
It would be nice if CloudStack would show a filtered list depending on the
hypervisor for ISO/Template registration.
