All these instances are in our ceph cluster.
The instance path is defined in nova.conf:

instances_path = $state_path/instances
If one compute node fails but it's able to initiate a migration, the
same instance directory is created on the new host and the disks are
copied to its new compute node.
Why would ephemeral instance disks be copied if the backing store is a
shared system like Ceph. There would be no need to copy a disk image
since the destination host's /var/lib/nova/instances directory is
exactly the same as the source's, right?
