Add Graphical Disk management tool like blivet-gui #187

Open karthikprabhuvinod opened 4 years ago

karthikprabhuvinod commented 4 years ago

Currently, there is no graphical way to perform lvm volume management, software raids in Clear linux. Looks like there is a open sourced python based tool called blivet-gui which can enable the below in addition to Gparted disk management capabilities: a.) LVM2 management (physical volume, volume group, volumes etc) b.) Software Raid managament c.) Lvm over raid

Source: https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet-gui

Capabilities: https://vojtechtrefny.github.io/blivet-gui/

@mdhorn: This is probably a good to have. We might have to use it in clr-installer to allow users perform LVM management

@karthikprabhuvinod I don't think that is the right upstream url, looks like a dump from another source.

karthikprabhuvinod commented 4 years ago

@bryteise Thanks :). This is the right one : git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/system-config-lvm.git

@karthikprabhuvinod I can't seem to clone that repo...

Also, I see from the Fedora package repo that the project is no longer used: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/system-config-lvm/commits/master

@karthikprabhuvinod I was meaning to look into this one: https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet-gui as a potential candidate.

karthikprabhuvinod commented 4 years ago

@phmccarty Thanks . I was hoping it was the one as I see everyone seems to have a great familiarity with it

@mdhorn Thanks, a good one. It is feature rich and maybe we can think about replacing gparted with it. Should I close this open one for blivet?

I would just reuse this one and maybe update the title. It's the same goal, just a possibly different tool.

@phmccarty : I have updated the tool itself. Please could you evaluate this?

@mdhorn : Thanks. Looks like the tool is pretty feature rich.
