Strictly speaking (reading the man page), this is an
incorrect use of virt-df:
"If any -a or -d arguments are specified, "virt-df" performs a "df"-type
operation on either the single named libvirt domain, or on the disk
image(s) listed on the command line (which must all belong to a single
VM). In this mode (with arguments), "virt-df" will only work for a
single guest. If you want to run on multiple guests, then you have to
invoke "virt-df" multiple times."
But:
(1) The behaviour is unexpected. We should at least document it
more clearly.
(2) Using the name of the last disk is arbitrary, and wrong. We
should use something else here, perhaps both names, or perhaps
the first name plus '*', or an explanatory string.
Note also, the same thing can happen if the user uses the -d option multiple times: $ sudo virt-df -d F17x64 -d F19Rawhidex32 Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% F19Rawhidex32:/dev/sda1 495844 97005 373239 20% F19Rawhidex32:/dev/sdb1 495844 96275 373969 20% F19Rawhidex32:/dev/sdb3 26894392 3714140 21814084 14% F19Rawhidex32:/dev/vg_f17x64/lv_root 28447752 5318808 21683876 19% Roughly the same code in main.c:282 is involved. Also the --help output and SYNOPSIS in the man page is less than clear on this issue. |
