Hello,
It would be great adding 2 items to the "Task" part:
-
Size/Destination of the VDI when moving. As of now, the shown information is:
Pool Name
VDI Name - SR Size
VM Name (Host)What I propose is:
Pool Name
VDI Name - VDI Size
Origin SR (Size) -> Destination SR (Size)
VM Name (Host)I guess something similar could be applied to a VDI copy operation.
-
Elapsed time in the task. This is shown in XenCenter and XO should be able to show it also. Sometimes is really useful when you're performing migration tasks and need to extrapolate elapsed time in certain tasks.
Also, the "Previous tasks" part, it's quite clogged with unuseful (99.99% of the times) information like:
- "SR.scan"
- VM.update_allowed_operations
- host_call_plugin
- VDI.db_introduce
- Async.SR.update
all of them items that only show the host where they are occurring (except "SR.scan" which shows which SR is being scanned) and nothing else. Maybe those can be useful to debug some situation, but not for a daily working mode. I don't know.. maybe with some filters where those tasks would be hidden by default?
To me, a definition of "Task" is something started on-demand, and not internal operations of Xen.
Thanks for the great job
