[jira] [Created] (CLOUDSTACK-4666) VM created under projects don't show up in admin instances, or under hosts

danny webb created CLOUDSTACK-4666:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: VM created under projects don't show up in admin instances, or under hosts
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-4666
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4666
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: UI
    Affects Versions: 4.1.0
         Environment: CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
            Reporter: danny webb


If you create a VM via the API that is assigned to a project it the VM isn't viewable anywhere except in the project view.  Even for the admin user.

Places you can't see them in the UI:

Admin -> Instances
Admin -> Infrastructure -> Hosts -> Hostname -> View Instances
User -> Instances

this is problematic because you have no way of gauging the overall utilisation of hosts without being able to see all hosts assigned to them.  

It seems to me that assigning a VM to a project shouldn't remove it from the overall instances list.  You should be able as a user be able to have the overall view of instances regardless of project in the instances view as long as you are a member of that project.  If you need to get granular with what VMs are assigned to what projects you can do that via the project view.  And the admin should definitely be able to see all instances in the instances page without having to delve into the project view and trying to find the host.
