Hi Dan,
What do you think of this for the disk XML specifying what to do on error:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<source file='/storage/guest_disks/libgdu'/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
<on_err rerror='stop' werror='stop'/>
</disk>
I'm in two minds as to whether we really need separate policies for read
and write. I know QEMU supports that, but even those who implememted it
told me it was rather redundant& a historical accident because they did
not want to rename the existing 'werror' attribute when they added the
'rerror' bit. So unless someone has a compelling reason for them to be
separate I think we can have a single policy.
Heh, makes sense to me; one policy it is.
If we follow the style of the<on_reboot> <on_poweroff> elements we'd
have something like
<on_error>stop</on_error>
My only other thought would be to do it as an attribute on the existing
<driver> element in disks, where we have disk format& cache mode already
Adding an attribute seems like a nice way to do it.
