This patch series introduces the pre/post/failed-snapshot hooks that run before/ after a snapshot is taken, or after failing to take a snapshot.
I used the new example script from pve-docs as template for my test hookscripts. What I tested: * Normal snapshotting, without VM state, without hookscript * snapshot works, no hooks executed * Normal snapshotting, with VM state, without hookscript * snapshot works, no hooks executed * Normal snapshotting, without VM state, with hookscript * snapshot works, pre/post hooks work * Normal snapshotting, with VM state, with hookscript * snapshot works, pre/post hooks work * Taking snapshot with existing name, with hookscript * fails, no hookscripts get executed * Failed at wrong storage config, with hookscript * pre/failed get executed, lock gets released * Failed at taking RAM Snapshot (simulated with monkey-patched die), with hookscript * pre/failed get executed, lock gets released * pre/post hookscript that detaches/attaches unsnapshottable disk (without --skiplock) * snapshotting fails, attach/detach fails, pre/failed get executed, lock released * pre/post hookscript that detaches/attaches unsnapshottable disk (with --skiplock) * snapshotting works, attach/detach works, pre/post get executed * restoring works, detached disk is detached after restoring * pre-snapshot hookscript exits with code > 0 * pre/failed-snapshot get executed, snapshot fails, lock gets released * post-snapshot hookscript exits with code > 0 * pre/post/failed-snapshot get executed, snapshot fails, lock gets released * Taking snapshot of template * fails, no hookscripts get executed * execute commands in VM in pre/post via qm guest exec * snapshot succeeds, commands get executed, pre/post executed Changes from v2 (thanks fabian!): * added guards, so cfs_update() only gets called when necessary * added PVE_SNAPSHOT_PHASE envvar to failed-snapshot as indicator when the failure occured Changes from v1: * added failed-snapshot hook that runs after a failed snapshot * this enables users to revert any changes made in pre-snapshot hooks in case of errors * running cfs_update() after every hookscript invocation * adjusted the call sites of exec_hookscript() * particularly interesting for pre-snapshot since some checks now run before the hook runs * VM/CT config is now locked during hookscript execution Thanks to Fiona and Fabian for their valuable input/help! pve-guest-common: Stefan Hanreich (1): examples: add pre/post/failed-snapshot hooks to example hookscript examples/guest-example-hookscript.pl | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 26 insertions(+) pve-docs: Stefan Hanreich (1): partial fix #2530: snapshots: add pre/post/failed-snapshot hooks src/PVE/AbstractConfig.pm | 76 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 70 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) -- 2.30.2 _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
