How to define order of disk assignments in RHEV ?
Issue
- When multiple disks are added to a VM in RHEV, the order in which the disks are added in not maintained by RHEVM. Instead RHEVM sorts the disk-order based on the Alias of the disks.
- I create a VM, add multiple disks to the VM of any size. Then, I name the disk-alias of these disks something like:
Disk1 = FirstDisk
Disk2 = 2ndDisk
Disk3 = 03rdDisk
- After adding these disks, rhevm sorts these based on names without considering the order in which they were added as below:
Disk3 (seen as 1st disk) = 03rdDisk
Disk2 (seen as 2nd disk) = 2ndDisk
Disk1 (seen as last disk)= FirstDisk
- It should be like:
Disk1 = FirstDisk
Disk2 = 2ndDisk
Disk3 = 03rdDisk
- This is seen in the VirtualMachines > Disks TAB.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager 3.1
