The "checkPool" is a bit different for pool with "fc_host"
type source adapter, since the vHBA it's based on might be
not created yet (it's created by "startPool", which is
involked after "checkPool" in storageDriverAutostart). So it
should not fail, otherwise the "autostart" of the pool will
fail either.
The problem is easy to reproduce:
* Enable "autostart" for the pool
* Restart libvirtd service
* Check the pool's state

Not sure this is the right thing to do. With this change it doesn't
matter what getAdapterName() returns for fc_host's...
It matters with if "*isActive" is true or false in the end. We don't
need to try to start the pool if it's already active.
Fair enough; however, let's consider the failure case. On failure, a
message is reported and name == NULL. Do we need to clear that error now?
Indeed.
I've attached a format-patch output for this logic - your call as to
whether or not you want to use it... If you keep your logic, then just
decide upon how to handle the error message... It won't be necessary for
the check case, but would be for the refresh case.
I am OK with things as they are, it just looks odd in the CheckPool
function to be special casing FC_HOST just because it's not created yet
and then to have the start function do the create anyway. It just seems
we could be smarter/better.
I agree your method is more linear, except there is no need for the error
statement in startPool (hope the indention is not broken), it will just
override the useful errors in the code path.

To ensure things work well, I'm going to put the patch into practice
tomorrow
on a NPIV machine. If it goes well, I will push it with above change.
