Empty manifest from IG missing from 'This Slice' but blocks new reservations #1111

Open ahelsing opened 9 years ago

ahelsing commented 9 years ago

If you reserve at an IG AM asking for nothing (empty RSpec or stuff only bound to a different AM) then there are 0 slivers in the manifest from that AM, so nothing in the sliver_info tables, so "This Slice" misses that AM. And then later you'll get an error if you try to reserve resources in this slice at that AM.

Can we handle this somehow?

Detect a manifest with 0 slivers from IG AM?
Put warning on portal?
Create fake sliver_info record?
And who should do this? Omni? Or the portal?

Sarah says the key thing is the portal should show you that you are in this situation.
