@slavkap The volume & snapshots shown in deployment form are not relevant to the category. Volumes are not listed, checked in env with some ROOT & DATA volumes, also uploaded volumes. Can you please check.

Instance from Volume

Instance from Snapshot

LGTM. I have tested both FE and BE functionalities. It is possible to deploy an Instance from volume as well as from snapshot. The volumes/snapshots are displayed in the Instance creation form.

* Instance from Volume
* Instance from Snapshot

@sureshanaparti, I have removed the option to choose OS/user because those aren't used with the snapshot/volume option

LGTM, able to create instance

from a detached volume (a ROOT volume, or a volume created from ROOT volume's snapshot in Zone-wide pool and having valid template details. Otherwise, it fails with "The provided volume/snapshot doesn't have a template to deploy a VM").
from snapshot (of a ROOT volume).

UI listed only detached volumes in Ready state, and snapshots of ROOT volumes. Volumes in Zone-wide pools are only supported for instance creation. Otherwise, it fails with "Deployment of virtual machine is supported only for Zone-wide storage pools".

@slavkap The parameters - oscategoryid, volumefilter, details, isvnf, showicon are not applicable while listing volumes, and oscategoryid, snapshotfilter, details, isvnf, showicon are not applicable while listing snapshots. Also, listOsCategories is called before listVolumes and listSnapshots, which is not required. Can you check this.

removed unnecessary API params

removed invoking of listOsCategories when listing volumes or snapshots
