[pve-devel] [PATCH v3 qemu-server, container, docs 0/7] migration: don't scan all storages, fail on aliases

This patch series changes the behavior during guest migrations:

Don't scan all storages for potential images belonging to the guest.
Only migrate images referenced in the config.
This made it necessary to handle pending changes explicitly which had
been covered by the storage scan.

We also added checks for any aliased volids and fail the migration if
detected.

The patches in qemu-server and pve-container are split int two. The
first ones handle the change from scanning the storages to handle only
referenced images. The second one adds the alias check.

There is also a small patch for the documentation to add a hint that
aliased storages should be avoided.


changes since v2:
- style fixes
- qemu-server: mainly change the handling of pending changes
- container: use NEW_DISK_RE to check if the volume is a not yet created
pending volume

More in each patch.

qemu-server: Aaron Lauterer (4):
  migration: only migrate disks used by the guest
