>From an e-mail to the CS distribution list:

Hi,

I noticed while creating a VM from an ISO today that I am taken to a page in the wizard that talks about a Data Disk Offering.

It seems a bit confusing to me because I don't actually get a data disk once the wizard has spun up the VM. This Data Disk Offering page is displayed to collect data regarding the size of the root disk the VM will have.

Any thoughts on this? Is this a known issue or should I log a bug?

Thanks!

Reply from Ryan Lei:

I noticed this issue long ago, and I agree with you.

In my understanding, while the tab in the VM wizard always says "Data Disk
Offering," if you create a VM using ISO, this step actually means Root Disk
Offering.

If this is the case, the tab name should depend on whether the user chooses
Select Template (Data Disk Offering) or Select ISO (Root Disk Offering).
