selection of volume for instance creation showing code level object info

[Anil Benny]

While selecting the volume for instance creation i see object level info of the volume being displayed as part of the selection of the volume. attaching the screenshot.

I can reproduce on master after creating a volume with no name.

This should be resolved simply enough by using Django's string_concat() function.

Julie,

How do you create a Volume with no name? When I try to do this on master, I'm not allowed to create a volume without supplying a name.

[Julie Pichon (jpichon)]

Hi Abishek,

You need to use the cinder command-line tool to do this. After setting up your credentials (e.g. ". openrc" if using devstack), you can run the command "cinder create 1", which will create a 1gig volume without a name.

Ah! ok.. let me try that out.
Thank you for responding! I'm trying to make my first contribution to
Openstack. :)

Can also repro this. Doing a cinder create or a nova volume-create creates a volume without a name which then shows up on Horizon with all the code object info.

Great! Next step is writing up the patch then :-)

Feel free to reach out by email or on IRC (#openstack-horizon, I'm jpich) if you have questions as you work your way through this bug.

I had exchanged emails with Abishek; he said he had been tied up with other tasks and agreed that I could take this bug. I've just submitted a patch (above).

    Fix cosmetic bug when displaying unnamed volumes

    When displaying a selection of volumes while creating an instance,
    volumes with no assigned name were being displayed improperly due
    to lazy translation.

    Fixes: bug #1133174
