Subject: [virt-tools-list] virt-manager default storage values customization

Hi everybody,
is it possible to configure virt-manager (0.9.5-1) so that when an operator 
adds storage:
* add hardware
* storage
the default value for "Cache mode" is "none"?

Please use upstream virt-manager J

At the beginning I thought there were a default config file to modify, but 
after spending several time researching I came to the conclusion that the only 
way is to modify the code of virt-manager.

We had a edit->preference (virtManager/preferences.py) to do such kind of job.

Unfortunately I'm new to python.
I think some modification have to be made in files
* addhardware.py (line 632)
* createvol.py
But I have no idea how to proceed ...

Do you have any advice?

Thank you very much for your support.
Evan



See build_disk_cache_combo
in virtManager/addhardware.py:

_iter = model.insert(0, [None, "default"])

If you really want to change the cache mode of lots of storage,
*virsh edit* may be a better choice than “Add Hardware-> Storage”

If you want really want to do that, you need to

1)       change ui

2)       change virtManager/addhardware.py, virtManager/preferences.py etc.



I wonder whether it worth to do this.
