[pve-devel] features ideas for 3.0 roadmap

[James Devine]

Perhaps some type of update mode which would pull a host server out of the
cluster and migrate machines off of it.

Auto-migrate VMs to do resource balancing.  I've heard resistance to this
with the argument that the migration would cause an even higher load but I
think it is still a valid option.  If the high load ends up being a long
term situation it may be beneficial to migrate and cause a high load for a
brief period of time.  Also if things are kept balanced early enough the
problem may be prevented all together.  There could be tuning options such
as when to balance and delay to prevent short periods of high load from
causing a migration.  This would also be useful for rebalancing the cluster
if new hosts are added or if the above option is implemented and a host is
re-added to the cluster.
