The delete ran in the request: undefine, then the VM's record, then its
disk files. A request that died in between (a gunicorn worker past its
timeout, OOM, a restart), or a database write that failed after the
undefine, left a record that later showed as removed outside the panel,
and the disk files the user asked to delete were never deleted.
Deleting a VM is now an instance.delete job. It holds the compute
exclusively, as the request did, so no other VM attaches a file it is
about to delete. The job chooses the files before it stops the VM (a host
that cannot be checked still stops nothing) and records them first. It
then stops and undefines the VM, removes its record, and deletes the
files, each with its own Logs row. Recovery decides from libvirt: a VM
still on its host means the delete failed; a VM gone means libvirt did
it, so recovery removes the record and deletes the recorded files that
are still there.
The page queues the job and returns to the VM page, where the job panel
follows it and opens the VM list when it ends; disks that were kept are
the result's warning. The API's delete answers 202 with the job and
needs a submission_key. backing_path moves to wvmConnect, as recovery
has no domain to ask.
The API's VM actions call the web views and only looked at the status
code; the views report a partial result (a disk that was not deleted or
was kept, a template that was not started) as a message for the page
they redirect to. The API reported plain success and left the messages in
the session. Its answer now carries them in "messages".
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.
- 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.
The Logs page now records the panel's own records too: users (add,
change with the changed fields, delete, block, unblock, an admin's
password set, a user's own password change including the first-login
one, own profile edits), groups with their members and permissions,
VM owners from the accounts pages and from the VM page, OTP QR code
mails, flavors from web and API, app settings and the theme,
removed-VM records and SSH keys. No row carries a password or a key.
- A user is created in one transaction: when a VM named in
NEW_USER_DEFAULT_INSTANCES is missing, no half-made user stays.
- The OTP mail checks the email address before it creates a device;
without one it writes a failed row and makes no device.
- The VM page's owner rows read "VM web-1 owner bob: add" and
"...: remove" instead of "Add owner: bob" and "Delete owner: 17"; a
second owner refused by the single-owner setting is a failed row.
Owner rows keep the VM's host and name, so the VM's log tab shows
them.
- A setting or theme posted with its current value is no change and
writes no row; the old free-text setting rows are gone.
Host-side objects (networks, storage, interfaces, secrets, filters)
follow in the next layer.
moveto read the VM state for each flag and dropped options that did
not fit it, so a request could run as something else than asked; the
log then named the mode from the form ("live" or "offline"), not the
one used. The API did not log at all and answered "instance migrate is
started" after the migration had finished.
- moveto reads the state once. A running VM migrates live, or without
live paused for the transfer (non-live); a paused VM stays paused; a
shut-off VM moves offline. Live for a shut-off VM, offline for a
running or paused one, and any other state are refused before
anything changes. unsafe, auto converge (live only) and compressed
apply to a running VM.
- migrate_instance logs the outcome for the VM page and the API: the
mode and options used, or the error. The API answers
"instance is migrated (<mode>)" and accepts requests that leave out
an optional option.
- Post copy is gone from the form, the view and the API: only the
flag was set, and without migrateStartPostCopy, which the app never
called, the migration never switched to post copy.
Migration left the VM defined on the source host unless "Delete
original" was ticked (VIR_MIGRATE_UNDEFINE_SOURCE). With the shared
storage migration needs, that definition points at the disks the
destination VM is running on: the VM showed on both hosts and could be
started (or autostarted) a second time against the same disks; only a
configured lock manager stops that.
moveto now always passes VIR_MIGRATE_UNDEFINE_SOURCE with
VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST. The option is gone from the form, the view,
the API (MigrateSerializer.xml_del) and the clone auto-migration. It
removes the definition, not the disk files.
Comments, docstrings and live test names cited item IDs of a roadmap
that is not part of the repository. They now say what is meant, or
nothing where the sentence stands without them. Test assertions and
behavior are unchanged.
Web form: the cache mode and the UEFI firmware value were checked only
after the disk volume had been created; an invalid one answered 500 and
left the volume. All checks now run before any allocation. Volumes the
request creates are removed on any failure up to the definition; ones
that cannot be removed are reported. After the definition the VM uses
them, so a later failure keeps them.
API: the new volume was never removed when the definition failed, and
the error was a 500. It is removed now and a libvirt error returns 400.
SPICE was removed earlier; its leftovers and the console type choice go
too:
- the console settings form, update_console and the backend no longer
offer or change the type; an invalid console form now shows its
errors instead of being ignored;
- the create form, the API serializer and create_instance no longer take
a graphics type, new VMs get VNC; get_graphics_types and the graphics
entries of the domain capabilities are gone;
- migration appsettings.0013 deletes QEMU_CONSOLE_DEFAULT_TYPE;
- a VM defined elsewhere with another graphics type gets "Console type
... is not supported".
The locale catalogs still reference the deleted SPICE templates in
source comments; regenerating them is left to the translation work.
Super-linter ran from the unpinned :latest image and, because of
branches-ignore: [master], never on pull requests to master. Ruff now
checks syntax errors and pyflakes rules (E9, F) on every push and PR.
Fixes the existing findings: unused imports and variables, an unused
duplicate import in instances/tests.py, and the star import in
accounts/views.py. settings-dev.py keeps its star import of the base
settings.
Disk edits:
- edit_disk built a new <disk> from the form and replaced the old one,
losing what the form does not show (e.g. encryption and virtio
driver options); a bus change detached and re-attached the disk.
The disk of the persistent definition is now edited in place and the
domain defined once; a bus change picks a free device name and drops
the old address and virtio-only options. Pending persistent changes of
a running VM are kept.
- Clone omits empty disk devices, refuses a disk without a supported
source and destination, and checks the name before allocating storage.
Locks:
- Every VM change held its compute's exclusive lock, so one slow
operation blocked all VMs on that compute. A VM change now holds its
own VM lock plus a shared compute lock; reconciliation, migration and
cloning hold the compute exclusively (two clones of different VMs
must not pass the name check together).
- Quota-checked changes of one user (CPU, memory and disk resize,
clone) run one at a time under a per-user lock, also across computes,
so concurrent requests cannot all pass the check against the old
allocation. It is the outermost lock; superusers, who have no quota,
skip it.
- A busy lock answers 409 to the API and a message in the web UI. API
power and destroy actions return the view's error instead of success.
- Routers use path converters (use_regex_path=False): computes, instances
and flavors take <int:...> ids, so non-numeric ids get 404 and
drf-spectacular derives the parameter types itself.
- Each method declares what it really returns: detail serializers,
a shared StatusSerializer for status-only replies, no request body for
actions. Instance properties used by the details serializer get return
type hints.
- The create-instance API drops the firmware field. Its only accepted
value was "" (BIOS), which produced an empty, invalid enum, and the
UEFI branch behind it was unreachable. Clients that still send it are
unaffected; DRF ignores unknown fields.
The schema now passes spectacular --validate --fail-on-warn; a test
keeps it that way.
- Computes API: mark password as write_only in ComputeSerializer, restrict ComputeViewSet and architectures to IsAdminUser.
- Instances API: enforce user ownership tenant isolation in InstanceViewSet.list, restrict MigrateViewSet and CreateInstanceViewSet to IsAdminUser, require IsAdminUser for mutating FlavorViewSet.
- Storage, Network, and Interface APIs: restrict StorageViewSet, VolumeViewSet, NetworkViewSet, InterfaceViewSet to IsAdminUser.
- AppSettings & NWFilters: protect appsettings and nwfilter views with @superuser_only (403 Forbidden for non-superusers).
- noVNC Console: sign tokens with TimestampSigner (salt='console.novnc', max_age=600), verify signature and user authorization in novncd with backward-compatible fallback for debug/test mode.
- Accounts: avoid hardcoded default admin password; generate cryptographically secure random password unless ADMIN_PASSWORD is set (preserve 'admin' in test runner).
- gstfsd daemon: bind to 127.0.0.1 by default instead of 0.0.0.0.
- Tests: added comprehensive test coverage for API security, token expiration/rejection, and view permissions (132 tests passing).
