Public bug reported: For each images, when user clicks on Edit Image --> Update Metadata, the list of various available metadata categories and properties is displayed in a pop-up window. For each category and property, a user- friendly description is displayed at the bottom of the pop-up.
The description for "Common Operating System Properties" category says - "When adding an image to Glance, you may specify some common image properties that may prove useful to consumers of your image." This is too generic and seems like a copy-paste of the description from glance- common-image-props.json that the author later failed to update. For all the other categories it shows a better description of what they denote. Eg: for "Database Software" (software-databases.json) it says"A database is an organized collection of data. The data is typically organized to model aspects of reality in a way that supports processes requiring information. Database management systems are computer software applications that interact with the user, other applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze data. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database)" Expected description: Details of the Operating System contained within this image as well as common Operating System properties that must be set on a VM instance created from this image. Actual description: When adding an image to Glance, you may specify some common image properties that may prove useful to consumers of your image. ** Affects: glance Importance: Undecided Assignee: Deepti Ramakrishna (dramakri) Status: New ** Changed in: glance Assignee: (unassigned) => Deepti Ramakrishna (dramakri) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
