Subject: [PATCH qemu-server v2 2/2] fix #4012: migrate: mention snapshots referencing a local ISO image
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 09:46:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008094650.7-3-me@dualfroz.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008094650.7-1-me@dualfroz.com>
When a VM has no local ISO image attached anymore, but one of its
snapshots still references it, migration fails with:
can't migrate local disk 'local:iso/debian.iso': local cdrom image
which does not tell where the image is coming from, since it is not
visible in the current configuration of the VM.
Add the names of the snapshots referencing the image to the error in
that case, like it is already done for a physical CD/DVD drive. The
check for the physical drive now reuses the same hint, which also
uses the plural form if more than one snapshot references it.
Add a migration test with an ISO image on the 'local' storage that is
only referenced in a snapshot. This requires the 'iso' content type
for the 'local' storage in the test.

Changes in v2:
* add the ISO image to the new $source_other_volumes in the test
instead of $source_vdisks (preparatory patch 1/2)
* drop 'vmid' from the mocked ISO volume
* say "snapshots" in the hint if more than one snapshot references
the volume
* split overlong line in the test
