Notes

The Notes feature in the virtual machine (VM) management interface enables users to add, manage, and reference important information related to a specific VM instance. This functionality is particularly useful for operational tracking, team collaboration, and auditing purposes.

Purpose of Notes​

The Notes section is designed to provide a centralized area for storing user-defined annotations that are specific to the selected VM. It can be used for a variety of purposes, including:

  • Tracking changes or updates made to the VM.

  • Logging maintenance tasks or configuration changes.

  • Communicating handover details between team members.

  • Recording troubleshooting actions or issues encountered.

Interface Overview​

The Notes section comprises two main components:

1. Notes List Panel​

  • Displays all previously added notes associated with the VM.

  • Notes are listed chronologically with the most recent entries shown first.

  • If no notes have been added, the panel will display the message:
    "No records found!"

2. Add Notes Panel​

  • Allows users to input new notes.

  • The Note field is mandatory and accepts free-text input.

  • A tool-tip icon provides additional guidance on what to enter.

  • After writing the note, click the "Add" button to save it.

Once saved, the note appears in the Notes List Panel and is associated permanently with the VM instance until manually removed.
