<div dir="ltr">I've been dealing with lots of confusion from users, mainly because the mountpoint they specify in volume-attach really has no bearing onto what the guest OS does with the volume.<div><br></div><div style>
Here's some examples:</div><div style>m1.tiny has no ephemeral disk, Horizon "Suggests" /dev/vdc as the mountpoint. The OS assigns the volume to the next available device, which is /dev/vdb</div><div style><br>
</div><div style>a flavor with an existing (perhaps unused) ephemeral disk at /dev/vdb, and the user specifies /dev/vdb in volume-attach, OS will use the next available device, and confuse the user.</div><div style><br></div>
<div style>Windows guests - have no /dev/ - volumes show up as disk1, disk2, etc.</div><div style><br></div><div style>Having the mountpoint seems to do more to confuse the users. This is an option that really doesn't seem to bring anything to the table. We should really just leave device assignment to the guest OS, no?</div>
