Hello, this is my first time posting on this mailing list.
I wanted to suggest a addition to the qemu hook. I will explain it
through my own use case.
I use a shared LVM storage as a volume pool between my nodes. I use
lvmlockd in sanlock mode to protect both LVM metadata corruption and
concurrent volume mounting.
When I run a VM on a node, I activate the desired LV with exclusive lock
(lvchange -aey). When I stop the VM, I deactivate the LV, effectively
releasing the exclusive lock (lvchange -an).
When I migrate a VM (both live and offline), the LV has to be activated
on both source and target nodes, so I have to use a shared lock
(lvchange -asy). That's why I need a hook event on the source host too
(as far as I know after my tests, the migration event is only triggered
on the target host).
Is such a feature a possibility?
Thanks for your attention.
