[pve-devel] qemu-kvm online resize with device-backed storage

qemu block resize can't work with krbd, only librbd.

Seem to be a regression in proxmox, because we don't do it before.

we can  add in

/usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/RBDPlugin.pm 
sub volume_resize {

 return 1 if $running || $scfg->{krbd};

Objet: [pve-devel] qemu-kvm online resize with device-backed storage

Hello. 

Looks like PVE's qemu is affected by bug 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1070531 

I think because of this resize is failing for CEPH with krbd enabled 
(seen several reports on forum). It also affects my custom DELL plugin. 

After backing device is resized, I had error "qmp command 'block_resize' 
failed - Could not resize: Invalid argument". Manual qmp command also 
failed: 
# block_resize drive-scsi1 16492674416640 
Could not resize: Invalid argument 

Surprisingly, 
# block_resize drive-scsi1 15T 

done job. 

Just tested (in another machine) with megabytes instead of terabytes, 
also works OK: 
# block_resize drive-scsi0 8603566080 
Could not resize: Invalid argument 

# block_resize drive-scsi0 8205M 

So maybe we could do something like 
- vm_mon_cmd($vmid, "block_resize", device => $deviceid, size => 
int($size)); 
+ vm_mon_cmd($vmid, "block_resize", device => $deviceid, size => 
ceil($size/1024/1024) . "M"); 
in PVE::QemuServer::qemu_block_resize() as workaround?
