As for one of the suggestions that was made on the doc, I'd rather
have this discussion on the list than in the doc.
I'm pretty firmly against this. We already have UI in Cockpit for
creating new volumes using storaged. If we do anything specific here, we should just
redirect people to that spoke in Cockpit.
(note to readers: "this" is referring to creation of the underlying
storage as part of the NFS server role)
Are we going to provide something useful, or a construction kit to
make useful things? I think that we're targeting inexperienced admins,
therefore I think that a frictionless experience from out of the box
to something that is up providing services on the network is the
standard that we should strive for.
That being said, I'm also not saying that we need to reinvent the
wheel - using the existing functionality obviously makes a lot of
sense, but I think that the integration and experience of the user has
to be paramount here. That's really all that I was trying to capture
there.
