IBM SVC- request ability in V7.x GUI to create multi-volume (plus symbol) capability like in pre-V7.x GUI.

Pre-V7.x GUI, when creating New Volume there existed an ability to enter a (Volume Name, Size, # of Volumes) and ability to click on (plus symbol) to add new line for entering additional New Volumes. Appears that starting in V7.1.0.x GUI, that when creating New Volume, you can enter (Quantity, Capacity, Name) but there is no longer a (plus symbol) enabling multiple volumes to be identified with different characteristics. Therefore if desire is the create multiple new volumes with different Capacity and Name, will now be required to create each New Volume in V7.1.0.x GUI one at a time. Would request the (plus symbol) capability be re-added to the New Volume wizard.

    Attachment (Use case): [File: SVC_V7.1.0.5_GUI_New-Volume_Creation_Example.JPG] provides view of new (missing plus symbol) capability and now can only identify a single volume at time for creation. To create multi-volumes, will need to perform New Volume creation wizard multiple times (for each new volume desired.)
