Yeah, for two reasons (neither very good). First, I had been
throwing
out the warnings, but decided at the last minute to start saving them
for whenever we have a way to show them to the user. Second, I am
struggling to find good phrasing for the corresponding status message.
"Error checking storage configuration" seems perfectly clear to me, yet
"Warning checking storage configuration" does not. Ideas?
What if both warnings and errors generate the same message - something
along the lines of "Storage needs investigation". Or perhaps two
different but similar messages - "Storage requires modification",
"Storage may require modification". I'm not very good at the wording
here. For errors, we make the spoke not ready, while warnings we leave
that alone.
When you enter the storage spoke again, we display a status bar at the
bottom of the screen and if you click it, you get a dialog with the
various errors and warnings?
It might also be more user-friendly to flag individual filesystems so
you get the error/warning message right where you can do something about
it.
