autoinstall storage sizing-policy all, with interactive-sections storage, does not work

[hudac]

I'm preparing an Ubuntu 22.04 iso. I want the default lvm size to be all, and not scaled as Ubuntu's default https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-reference.

sizing-policy
The lvm layout will, by default, attempt to leave room for snapshots and further expansion. A sizing-policy key may be supplied to control this behavior.
type: string (enumeration)
default: scaled

I tried:

  interactive-sections:
    - storage
  storage:
    layout:
      name: lvm
      sizing-policy: all

But it doesn't work.
I want the interactively chosen disk by the user to have the full capacity instead of changing it all the time.
This capacity is a thing that may be forgotten when installing, I want the default to be 'full'.

Thanks

Sadly, the storage autoinstall config seems ignored when storage is listed as an interactive-section. I guess the UI resets the configuration when it loads?

I guess the only option I can suggest with the current implementation would be to make the storage section non interactive ; it that is an option for you.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately I cannot remove the 'storage-interactive' part, because I'm working on a product where I don't know where it would be installed. I want to give the user the ability to choose.

Do you think it will be solved in newer versions?

Thanks
