Title:
Device Name is mandatory but many (most?) Hypervisors can't set it.
Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
Fix Released
Bug description:
Running Havana and noticed that in the "Manage Volume Attachments"
dialog the "Device Name" field under "Attach To Instance" is marked as
mandatory when attaching a volume. Per
https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1217874 (and others) this
setting can't actually be enforced on any supported Hypervisors except
Xen at the moment and there is no sign of this changing.
This field should not be mandatory and/or should default to the "auto"
setting which results in the volume being attached to the next
available device name in the guest (as above this is what happens even
when you specify a device on most hypervisors). Exposing this field,
particularly as mandatory, is likely to result in user confusion when
the specified device is not actually the one used inside the guest.
