A migration needed every disk on storage both hosts share: it was refused
when the destination lacked a disk file, and a file of the same name
there was taken for the VM's own disk.
The Migrate tab now lists the VM's disk files for the chosen destination.
For each disk it offers the destination's pools that keep disk files
(directory, filesystem and NFS pools). A disk on storage both hosts share
can also stay where it is.
A directory counts as shared when both hosts have it as a storage pool
and a marker file created on the source exists on the destination. A
directory the probe cannot tell is never taken as shared.
libvirt copies the chosen disks during the migration: migrate3 with
NON_SHARED_DISK for those targets, and destination and persistent
definitions naming the new paths, where libvirt creates the files.
- A shut-off VM is started paused for the copy and shut off on the
destination; its CPUs never run. Its UEFI variables are copied first,
as the destination would start from the firmware's template. If the
migration fails, the VM is shut off on the source again.
- Refused before anything changes, each disk with its reason:
- a disk neither shared nor given a pool, also one only the next
start's definition has;
- CD-ROM images, read-only or encrypted disks, formats other than raw
and qcow2, and disks with a backing file;
- a pool that is not of disk files, or that has a file of that name,
which libvirt would reuse and overwrite;
- two disks copied to one file.
- The job claims each copy's name in its pool, and the source volume.
- A failed or cancelled migration deletes the copies libvirt made, and
the UEFI variables copy, unless a VM on the destination has them.
- The source files stay and are named in the log. With "Delete the
source files of copied disks" they go, except one another VM or volume
uses; a failed delete is logged and the migration stands.
The NVRAM sharing check uses the same probe: a shut-off move stops when
it cannot be told, and the source file stays.
The API's migrate call takes disk_pools ({target: pool}) and
delete_source.
Operations on a VM now write their rows the way the admin audit does: one
row per operation, done or failed with a safe reason, with the user, IP and
host. Each row names the VM ("VM web-1: delete snapshot snap1") and carries
its UUID in the new Logs.instance_uuid column.
- audit_vm and failed_vm wrap audit() and failed() for a VM. A failure the
view turns into a message is caught outside the block, so its failed row
is written; busy claims, permission and quota refusals and invalid input
write nothing. No password, key or XML goes into a row.
- All VM page operations move from addlogmsg to audit_vm, and addlogmsg
goes. QoS changes and defining a VM from XML are logged now; a gstfsd
error reply (root password, SSH key) is a failed row, not a done one.
- Partial results are rows of their own: the VM delete, then each disk
delete; the disk detach, then the volume delete; the migration, then a
failed autostart restore, NVRAM removal or record on the target.
- Migration rows use the compute name as the host column, as every other
row does.
- VM job rows (create, clone, snapshots) and their resolutions carry the
VM's UUID; snapshot job intents now record it. The owner rows of the VM
page and the accounts pages, and the ownership system rows, carry it too.
- The Logs tab loads vm_logs/<pk>/ and shows the rows with the VM's UUID,
so a rename keeps the history, two VMs with one name are told apart and
a VM on two computes is one VM. It gains a Result column. Rows from
before this change have no UUID and stay on the Logs page only.

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.
