Since we switched to the SCSI controller in the Wizard as the recommended controller for hard disks (using VirtIO scsi in the backend) it was not clear for users that they were actually using a paravirtualized driver.
An example of user confusion: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-hypervisor-scsi-or-virtio.36506/#post-179056 This iproblem in the trainings as well. Patches 1-4 are code cleanups, no change since v2. Patches 5-8 contain the new functionality. changes since v2: * use a readonly display field to display the controller type instead of adding the SCSI controller type in the BusSelection combobox. This reduces the amount of user visible changes (the field is only displayed for SCSI buses selections) and also less intrusive as we don't need to change the rendered values of an existing combo box. Also this allows to store the selected SCSI controller type inside the wizard in a real component, so we can get rid of the setHiddenWizard() method which was a bit ugly. * write VirtIO as VirtIO Block when display a VirtIO Block controller Emmanuel Kasper (8): Do not use 'autoselect' as a boolean when preselecting a bus Remove unused noScsi parameter Save the components we found via down() in a variable for later reuse. Use the noVirtIO ControllerSelector property to build the list of controllers Add a field to show which SCSI controller type we are currently using When inside the wizard, actualize the scsiType display field based on iothread selection After OS type selection in Wizard, set the appropriate SCSI controller type in the Hard Disk panel Render full name of VirtIO Block controller www/manager6/form/BusTypeSelector.js | 8 ++--- www/manager6/form/ControllerSelector.js | 59 +++++++++++++++------------------ www/manager6/qemu/CreateWizard.js | 5 --- www/manager6/qemu/HDEdit.js | 45 +++++++++++++++++++------ www/manager6/qemu/OSDefaults.js | 2 +- www/manager6/qemu/OSTypeEdit.js | 10 +----- 6 files changed, 66 insertions(+), 63 deletions(-) -- 2.11.0 _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com https://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
