[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-widget-toolkit 1/2] panel: disk list: return consistent value for unknown smart status

[Christian Ebner]

Until now, the reported smart value is returned unconditionally, even
if the drive might report an `UNKNOWN` status.
To allow for better handling of the unknown smart state, also return
the utils helper text in that case. This allows for better handling
of e.g. conditionally showing the smart values window.

[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-widget-toolkit 2/2] disk list: disable show smart values button if status unknown

[Christian Ebner]

Do not allow to open the smart values window by either double clicking
the record or clicking the show button, if the selected drives status
is unknown.

Fetching the smart values for such devices might fail. Devices which
do not support this can be, e.g. USB pen drives used as removable
datastores in Proxmox Backup Server.

hmm, using translated strings for internal state is not fully ideal IMO.
Maybe just normalize it here to lowercase and place a renderer on where
it matters?

pre-existing but an if-else that returns boolean seldomly makes sense,
i.e. this could be:

enableFn: rec => rec && !rec.data.parent && rec.data.status && rec.data.status !== Proxmox.Utils.unknownText,

or with my comment for patch 1 addressed it might be:

enableFn: rec => rec && !rec.data.parent && rec.data.status && rec.data.status !== 'unknown',

Acked, will incorporate the suggestions for both patches in a v2, thanks 
for feedback!

btw before I forget it: This is some nice UX fine-polishing, but IMO the smart
status panel is not really ideal as main disk panel that opens on double click
and so on.

I'd rather transform this to open a generic disk, or partition, information
window showing things like model, serial, (part)uuid, in a main tab and make
that easily copyable. The smart data could be moved to a second tab in such
a window and only loaded when that opened. We could then mask its grid there
if the smart status is unknown or hide it completely if it cannot be queried,
like for partitions.
Some bigger changes but IMO quite a bit better UX than the status quo, which
feels rather confusing.
