#4166 [HHQ-4032] CreateSnapshot fails from HQ vSphere UI; needs re

[Hyperic Team]

http://jira.hyperic.com/browse/HHQ-4032
CreateSnapshot fails from HQ vSphere UI; needs required arguments. There is no option field to specify the required arguments in the HQ vSPhere UI. This needs to be added.

After clicking the Create Snapshot link, the display reports:

Action: createSnapshot


Description:

Status: Failed in 0.141s

Response: Unable to run control action: Usage: name, description

Expected Result:


The CreateSnapshot Control action can be successfully executed from the HQ vSphere UI

Actual Result:


The CreateSnapshot Control action will fail in the HQ vSphere UI as the required arguments for Name and Description cannot be specified

Steps to reproduce:


1. Log into HQ Server and go to HQ vSphere


2. Expand the Inventory tree and select a VM


3. Go to the Control tab


4. Click the Create Snapshot link


5. Note the action fails

Work around:


The Control Action can be executed from the Resource Page of the VM where there is an available field for Control Arguments.
