Public bug reported: Currently, qemu image is always converted when resizing and migrating.
I guess this process is to prevent a original disk image corrupting when expanding the disk size. So qemu-img convert should be skipped when migrating and resizing (when the disk image of new flavor is same the old one). The qemu-img convert is IO heavy process, so I'd like to skip, if possible. ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
