Create volumes from UI #15

Closed rgarza closed 9 years ago

rgarza commented 9 years ago

I am working in adding the ability to create volumes from the ui screen, is this you are interested in?, i was thinking in create them from the login screen, but maybe we should allow to create once you are logged in? what are your opinions on this?

Thank you

Unfortunately we would not be interested in this feature, we think users should understand and be aware of the various steps involved in creating encrypted volumes and that supporting that in INTERLOCK would add more complexity to it, which we would rather avoid.

Considering that creating volumes is a one-time only action we think this is acceptable.

Also as the login credentials are specifically the ones for the encrypted volume authenticating this action becomes tricky.
