2015-11-24 18:06:31 Rob Cresswell description The new launch instance button brings up a very much more complicated interface than the prior version. So complicated that the most trivial obvious tasks in the old UI are almost impossible in the new UI. I tried to boot from volume from image. Can't find such an option. When you click boot from volume, there is no option to create a new volume from an existing image (this is the semantic and workflow in the original UI.) After poking around and wasting 10 minutes and core horizon developer's time we found that you could boot from image and create a new volume (but since that HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME SINCE YOU CAN"T BOOT AN INSTANCE WITHOUT A block device of SOME SORT) it's not logical. Poorly thought out, poorly implemented, poor UI. FIX THIS CRAPPY INTERFACE PLEASE. Or just go back and use the one that worked. I tried to boot from volume from image. Can't find such an option.
