Hi folks,

As you may know, there are some activities aimed to improve environment
creation UX and create a single wizard that will guide a user from the very
environment creation to the start of deployment. There are some mockups
that show how it could look like:

I want to ask a question about step #7 (disk configuration). There would be
a list of nodes automatically grouped by roles+disks, so disks of all the
nodes in a group can be configured at once. I think this approach is better
than the current one (group nodes by hardware, check nodes/groups, click
"Configure Disks" button) for large environments with homogeneous nodes,
but we'll lose the ability to configure disks of an arbitrary group of
nodes or a single node. The question is: is this functionality really
needed? Maybe it should be available via CLI only? What is your opinion?
