I am thinking this problem for a while and feeling a limitation filter might be needed in current api design to filter those limitations and directly return well defined message, I apologize if this problem has been already discussed but I missed it, looking forward to your comments.

Can you give an example? Why not just update the current error messages to be well defined?


Well, lot's of example, like resize from big flavor to small flavor, currently different driver has different behaviour, hyper-v will check and just throw a exception, libvert powervm etc, after check just use the big flavor to perform resize.
