Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server master+stable-bookworm] migration: vm start: avoid config write when there are left-over VM-state-related properties
Date: Fri,  2 Jan 2026 14:17:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260102131852.107940-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)

The remove_left_over_vmstate_opts() function might write the
configuration, so it cannot be called in the context of a migration,
where the configuration file will be moved over from the source node
later. As reported in the enterprise support, this could cause an
error like:
> close (rename) atomic file '/etc/pve/nodes/XYZ/qemu-server/211.conf' failed: File exists

Fixes: 0db14e60 ("vm start: remove left-over VM-state-related properties")
