COMPONENT NAME

UI

CLOUDSTACK VERSION

4.17.0.1

CONFIGURATION

Standard install

OS / ENVIRONMENT

N/A

SUMMARY

On the 'Hosts' page, clicking on 'View Instances' brings the user to a table of instances (VMs). However, this table is not filtered by the host appropriately even though the URL includes a hostid=xxxx. Instead, the table shows all instances in CloudStack.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Go to Infrastructure -> Hosts
2. Select a host (For example: hostA)
3. Click on 'View Instances'
4. See that the Instances table contains all VMs in CloudStack (not filtered to show only hostA's VMs). The URL should contain something like: /client/#/vm?hostid=7b313bd8-81fe-4e57-bccb-90df970f6d67. Note that hostA's hostid is being passed in the URI but has no effect.

EXPECTED RESULTS

Expect the Instances table is filtered to show only hostA's VMs.

ACTUAL RESULTS

Instances table is not filtered to show only hostA's VMs.

Additional info

I think the hostid parameter isn't actually used by the view. I think the table view is generated and filtered by this file/line:

cloudstack/ui/src/views/AutogenView.vue

Line 1524 in c526244

} else if (this.$route.name === 'vm') {

I don't see hostid actually be used here.

I confirm this issue exists in 4.18 as well

Problem is not with the UI but with the listVirtualMachinesMetrics API. Currently, it does not support some of the params (hostid, podid, storageid, etc) as it extends DeployVMsCmd class. cc @weizhouapache
