Description of problem: When switching to post-copy migration, the result value of the corresponding libvirt call is examined. However, the call raises an exception rather than returning an error code on failure. That exception should be caught and handled appropriately. How reproducible: I don't know how to reproduce the bug easily in a real situation. But it can be artificially reproduced with modified Vdsm sources. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Modify Vdsm sources: Make _post_copy_flag method in migration.py always return 0. 2. Start a busy migration with post-copy schedule. 3. Wait until the switch to post-copy happens. Actual results: Traceback appears in vdsm.log and the migration continues "wildly". Expected results: The failure is logged in vdsm.log and the next migration schedule (abort) is executed.
