bug 1709056 is related. The edit flavor feature has been disabled by default and deprecated in Pike release. The feature will be dropped in Rocky release. Considering this, this bug is now marked as Won't Fix.
If we really need to address this bug, we can compare the current and new values and if nothing is changed we can stop creating a new flavor, but if we drop the feature completely this will no longer needed. ** Changed in: horizon Status: In Progress => Won't Fix ** Changed in: horizon Assignee: Ryan Selden (ryanx-seldon) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!

This behavior is confusing. I understand that there is no such api to verify if changes were introduced, but it probably should be implemented using javascript in horizon itself. Also, it would be good to add this note about what actually happens when you edit flavor to horizon edit-flavor page: http://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ops/content/flavors.html "The OpenStack dashboard simulates the ability to modify a flavor by deleting an existing flavor and creating a new one with the same name."
