@harikrishna-patnala as our resident store cluster specialist ;) , can you have a look?

@nvazquez , can you check if this is still an issue?

I also found a bug in the Wizard for "Add Zone" (CloudStack 4.20)

After labeling the traffic types (see pictures) and clicking "Next",if you every have to click on "Previous" those labels will have disappeared.

It might look like a cosmetic issue but it ends up not sending those parameters (kvmnetworklabel=cloudbr1 and kvmnetworklabel=cloudbr0) in the GET HTTP Request (causing a lot of paint to troubleshoot why some times it works and some times it does not).

I validated the assumption by running multiple times with and without clicking on the "Previous" button in different pages ahead (does not need to go back to the "Physical Network" page.
