I think this is because libvirt thinks the cloning operation failed and it tries to clean up. If you would refresh the pool after creating the RBD volume manually this wouldn' t happen. This is more a libvirt logic problem then a RBD storage driver specific issue. Good catch though, but I don't know how to fix this right now. oh... ouch... Long story short, I fixed a similar issue in/from the buildVol path; however, I seem to have forgotten the buildVolFrom path mainly because there was no rbd buildVolFrom code at the time. The two existing buildVolFrom backend API's in FS and DISK used code which ended up down in the path of buildVol, so it slipped my mind. Anyway, see commit id '4cd7d220c9b' - there's a lot of patches that support that and quite a bit of history, but I believe if you make a similar change in storageVolCreateXMLFrom where if "buildret < 0" rather than calling DeleteInternal, call storageVolRemoveFromPool using newvol Also helps that you can "test" my theory with a real rbd instance! |
Description of problem: If I manually create a cow clone of rbd device using 'rbd clone xxx', later if I create a rbd volume which has the same name as that I created before using 'virsh vol-clone xxx'. Then the manually created image is removed Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-1.3.2-1.fc24_v1.3.1_79_g63e15ad.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a rbd pool # cat rbd.xml <pool type='rbd'> <name>rbd</name> <source> <host name='10.73.68.116'/> <host name='10.73.68.117'/> <host name='10.73.68.118'/> <name>yy</name> </source> </pool> # virsh vol-list rbd Name Path ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vol1 yy/vol1 vol1.clone1 yy/vol1.clone1 vol1.clone2 yy/vol1.clone2 vol1.clone3 yy/vol1.clone3 vol1.clone4 yy/vol1.clone4 2. create a cow clone using 'rbd clone xxx' # rbd clone yy/vol1@sn1 yy/vol1.clone5 [root@fedora_yy ~]# rbd ls yy vol1 vol1.clone1 vol1.clone2 vol1.clone3 vol1.clone4 vol1.clone5 3. create vol1.clone5 using vol-clone [root@fedora_yy ~]# virsh vol-clone vol1 vol1.clone5 rbd error: Failed to clone vol from vol1 error: failed to clone RBD volume vol1 to vol1.clone5: File exists 4. check if vol1.clone5 exists [root@fedora_yy ~]# rbd ls yy vol1 vol1.clone1 vol1.clone2 vol1.clone3 vol1.clone4 Actual results: Manually created cow clone is removed Expected results: Manually created cow clone should not be removed Additional info:
