This series aims to fix #3711 [0] and streamline the detach/remove behavior around volumes that are either mounted into a container or attached to a VM as a hard disk. It also contains adds warnings in case a volume's underlying storage does not exist anymore. It is a continuation of a series from 2022 [1], but makes the following changes:
Changes v7 -> v8: - Rebased on master Changes v6 -> v7: - Added descriptions of changes made to original patches where applicable - Move check if storage exists to vdisk_free() and parse_volname() in pve-storage, print warnings - Remove explicit storage exist check in destroy_lxc_container, wrap in eval instead - Move parse_volume() calls to where input is known to be volume - Add patch that renames $volume to $volid in destroy_lxc_container() and delete_mountpoint_volume() - Rewrite commit message of pve-container 3/4 (2/4 in v6) such that it's clear this is about future-proofing - Add FIXME note regarding is_volume_in_use() check - Add warning to destroy_vm() if volume is still used by linked clone - Adapt commit message of qemu-server 2/4 - Add patch to use log_warn in destroy_vm() instead of warn - Rewrite patch in in qemu-server to print warnings of storage does not exist instead of marking volume without underlying storage as unused (vmconfig_register_unused_drive()) Thanks to Fiona for the comprehensive feedback on v6. Changes v5 -> v6: - Fix links in cover letter - Use Originally-by instead of Co-authored-by - Add documentation for the second patch regarding the use of $mp->{volume} instead of $conf->{$opt} - Note that no functional changes are intended for the the second patch Changes v4 -> v5: - Always ignore errors that originate from a removed storage and continue with destruction of a container or removal of a volume, instead of adding an option to ignore these errors. - Remove web UI checkbox - Remove formatting patch - Additionally allow removing a mount point with a removed storage from a running container (previously hotplug removal was not possible) - Fix style nits from v4 review - Print warnings for any errors that occur instead of ignoring them - Add explicit check if storage still exists when destroying a container to differentiate between that case and other error cases (which should still fail) The first change also means that this patch series should be held back until PVE 9. In the original patch series the option to ignore these errors was made to avoid breaking existing behavior. After some off-list discussion it seems more reasonable to avoid an additional option and instead allow users to remove containers with mount points even if the underlying storage of the mount point was removed. Where at least some of the implementation was taken from the previous series, the patch was marked to be Originally-by by the original author.
