Thanks for the feedback! I'm a bit conflicted regarding this one. The reason I thought it might fit better into the Confirm section is that, while it does affect *a* config, it does not affect the config of the VM/CT (and I don't think it should). That's also why I thought displaying the value of ha-managed in the summary grid might be a bit misleading, since this value will not be in the VM's/CT's config. But it might also be that my mental model of this dialog is too strict in assuming that everything that comes before the Confirm step is strictly related to the config of the guest? I would of course be open to moving the checkbox, just wanted to provide some rationale for why I put it there. If I moved it, I think it would make sense to move it to the Advanced section of the General tab? _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
