Hi all:
    We have the instance action and action event for most of the
instance operations,

exclude: live-migration. In the current master code, when we do
live-migration, the

instance action is recorded, but the action event for live-migration is
lost. I'm not sure that

it's a bug or design behavior, so I want to get more feedback in mail list.

Seems like that would be a bug.

    I found the patch https://review.openstack.org/#/c/95440/

    It's add the live migration action, but no event. It looks weird.

    I think there are two improvement we can do

    [1]: add the live migration event, keep consistence with other
instance operations.

++

    [2]: remove the live migration action in order to make the
operation transparent to end-users, like Andrew say in the patch comments.

I guess I'm confused why we would want to make the operation transparent to end-users? Andrew, what was your thought on that?

Just that it's something the user shouldn't need to care about. A live-migration is not a user initiated event, though I suppose it could be in some deployments, and the end result is that the instance is running on another host with no other appreciable change.

There are many reasons a deployer may want to live-migrate instances around: capacity planning, security patching, noisy neighbors, host maintenance, etc... and I just don't think the user needs to know or care that it has taken place.

I'm not against exposing it, but I do think that some operators will want the option to live-migrate without informing their users.


Best,
