[DISCUSS} Root/Domain Admin user should see ALL vms - based on
their permisions
This question was asked several times on dev and user mailing list.
I'd like to propose following enhancement and would like to get the community feedback:
Issue:
Root Admin cannot see all VMs under Instance tab when "all" instances are selected. Root Admin user need to switch between different projects to see more vms. This approach presents a challenge as there is no single view of all VMs in ALL projects. Same would apply to a domain admin, he should be able to see all vms in his domain at a glance without looping through each project.
Suggested resolution:
Change the behavior of show "all" instances by looping through all projects and showing the vm names. We would also need to alter the Instance view and append project name column and append domain/project.
What do you think?
Thanks
ilya

I see your point and I agree if we can implement flexible filtering!

My point is that all might be a lot and admin might want to filter
some classification he made using a naming convention, by typing it in
a filter box

Daan
The point is to see everything ROOT Admin and Domain Admin are entitled to see.
They can see it anyway by scrolling through the projects, but its not getting us - true - *all vms* view.
I don't know if only *.mine* projects would achieve the objective.

maybe a column selectpr and/or a filter function; only projects
matching '.*mine.*'

One other challenge, if you have large number of VMs, the view is going to be very long and some point hard to read. Perhaps we can add a filter feature, such that user can choose how many VMs per page are presented, i.e. 50, 100, 250, 500?
This would apply to all UI Instance view pages.
