Re: Ephemeral RBD with Havana and Dumpling

[Matt Thompson <wateringcan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dinu,

Initial tests for me using Ubuntu's 2013.2-0ubuntu1~cloud0 indicate that live migrations do not work when using libvirt_images_type=rbd ("Live migration can not be used without shared storage.")  I'll need to dig through LP to see if this has since been addressed.

On a side note, live migrations now appear to work for me when booting instances from a cinder volume.

Out of curiosity - can you live-migrate instances with this setup?
