It appears the offending code was added here: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;a=commitdiff;h=d6e21f74163212b198731ddf23dd48bc4c787b84

I see the problem.

It's in storage.js

        if (jsonObj.hypervisor == "KVM" || jsonObj.hypervisor == "XenServer" || jsonObj.hypervisor == "VMware") {
            if (jsonObj.state == "Ready" || jsonObj.state == "Allocated") {
                allowedActions.push("resize");
            }
        }

jsonObj.hypervisor is equal to undefined (it has the correct hypervisor type when I'm logged in as an admin).

We appear to have other code in the vicinity that depends on jsonObj.hypervisor and is probably misbehaving.

Maybe a GUI developer can fill us in as to what's expected here?

Here's a pic:

It's for a volume on KVM, but I see the same behavior on XenServer and VMware, too.

I'm logged in as a regular user.

Hi Wido,

I'm referring to the commands.properties file, where you can set permissions for a given API.

However, I see volumeResize has the following setting, which should enable users to access it:

resizeVolume=15

Perhaps there's just a bug in the GUI not showing the button?

Talk to you later,
Mike

You mean that it's a setting? I'd say it is preferred that they can do so indeed by default.
