A shut-off VM with TPM state, as every Windows 11 VM, was refused for
migration: the state is a file of the source host, and an offline move
would start it there with a new TPM. Such a VM now migrates as a shut-off
VM with disks to copy does: its UEFI variables are copied, it is started
paused, its CPUs never run, migrates live, which carries the TPM state,
and is shut off on the destination. A shut-off VM with a saved state is
refused before any of that, for every way it moves: started paused, it
would resume and then lose the saved memory.
The clone tab says that a clone gets a new, empty TPM, and the destroy
page that the TPM state goes with the VM.
Destroying a VM with its disk files forced it off first and then
worked out which files to delete, so a check that failed left the VM
stopped, and only this host's VMs and volumes were checked: a file on
shared storage that a VM on another host uses was deleted.
The files are now worked out before the VM is stopped: the disks it
runs with and those of its next start, as before with their snapshot
files and seed. A file a VM or volume of another of the panel's hosts
uses at the same path (shared storage is mounted at one path on every
host, as migration needs) is kept like one used here; another record
of the VM's own host is skipped, as there the VM itself uses them. A
host that cannot be read stops the destruction with its name, before
anything is stopped or deleted.
The Destroy tab was a sub-tab with one sentence and a link; its
confirmation page said only "This action is irreversible!" over a
"Remove Instance's data" switch. The tab now shows the state and
"Review destruction". The owner chose the confirmation layout from
three rendered options: the VM and its host, that its definition,
saved state and snapshot records go and that a running VM is forced
off, two plans for the files (delete the disk files, or keep them), the
VM's disks, what is always kept, the NVRAM choice, and Cancel.
Codex reviewed destroying; this is fixed:
- A disk file that cannot be deleted keeps the files below it, which
it needs: they were deleted after it, leaving it broken. The files
are deleted overlays first (split_disk_paths_by_use orders them by
how many files each grows from), and if the files a kept one needs
cannot be read, none of the rest goes. A message names each file
kept so, and a failed deletion says the VM is removed.
- A VM delete reads delete_disk and delete_nvram as booleans from a JSON
or form body. The view read them as HTML checkboxes from the form body
only: JSON {"delete_disk": true} kept the disks while reporting success,
and a form "delete_disk=false" deleted them. Refused options stop
nothing; the API schema names both options.
- Power on and power cycle of a template answer 409 instead of reporting a
start that did not happen.
- The VM details leave out the host's ISO images for non-superusers, as
the VM page does; reading them also refreshed every pool of the host.
- Flavors take values of at least 1, as the web form does, and show their
id for later changes; a migration needs neither live nor offline; a VM
create on an unknown compute answers 404 instead of 500.
libvirt deletes any volume it is asked to. The storage page and the API
deleted a VM's disk, the base image of another volume or the file a
snapshot was taken on without a check, breaking the VM or its
snapshots.
wvmStorage.del_volume now refuses a volume a domain on the compute uses
as a disk or a backing file of one, a file of a domain's snapshots, or
the backing file of another volume. The check is the one destroy
already used, moved to wvmConnect and extended to snapshot files, so
destroy also keeps the files of another VM's snapshots. The storage
page shows the refusal; the API answers 400 with it, as for other
refusals. Deleting a disk from a VM refuses after the detach when the
VM's own snapshots need the volume, and says the volume was kept.
Network disks count by their source name, pool volume disks by their
volume's path. A volume whose metadata cannot be read stops the check
instead of counting as unused; only one removed meanwhile is skipped.
The check and the delete hold the compute lock, so no VM operation
attaches the volume in between; a busy compute is a message on the page
and 409 in the API.
Create, revert and delete are one libvirt call each. The pflash-to-rom
loader rewrite, the hand-written block commit and the s1./s2. names are
gone, so UEFI VMs can take external snapshots, a revert keeps disks added
later, and deleting an older snapshot keeps the newer one.
Create refuses what libvirt could not revert or delete later: internal
snapshots on the VM, a saved state, a running snapshot job, disks that
are not files, CD-ROM media, a branch after a revert, and memory without
a running VM or room in the first disk's pool. A disk-only revert keeps
the VM running, paused or shut off; one with memory resumes it as saved.
A revert in the same second as the previous one, which libvirt fails
after stopping the VM, is retried once.
A snapshot the old code took of a UEFI VM saved the loader as rom; its
revert is refused (deleting it still works).
The snapshots tab lists internal and external snapshots separately, can
save memory too, shows running snapshot jobs, and the revert confirmation
names the disks it detaches and that NVRAM is not restored.
131 test modules sat next to the code they test; instances alone had
51 of them beside views.py and utils.py. They move into a
tests/ package per app, and the JavaScript checks into
webvirtcloud/tests/js. Each non-empty tests.py becomes tests/test_views.py;
the empty generated stubs are removed.
Imports of the app's own modules become absolute, paths built from
__file__ go one level up, the live helper is instances.tests.livetest,
and coverage omits */tests/*. The suite discovers the same 960 tests as
before.
