Subject: [PATCH container v4 26/27] migration: intra-cluster: check config can be parsed on target node
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 14:51:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261015125112.174954-27-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261015125112.174954-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com>
For remote migration, we already check that the config can be parsed
on the target. Do the same for intra-cluster migration, to avoid
issues with future new settings unexpectedly being ignored if the
target is too old. For example, migrating a container with a
mountpoint with 'keepattrs' to a node with a too old pve-container
version, results in the mountpoint not being mounted on the target.

Dependency bump for pve-cluster needed!
Changes in v4:
* Chomp original error to avoid weird formatting.
* Adapt version.
