>>B. Do not allow to modify the configuration while the VM is running (and >>hotplug disabled) I think that dietmar want to say, no allowing to change the config file (through api) when vm is online, only for values which cannot be change online or not hotplug. (like maxcpu, cpumodel,change disk if hotplug is disabled... for example) (I think this could also avoid some messages in the forum like : "I have change a value, do a reset of the vm, and I don't see the new value" If we force to change them offline (non hotplug values), it'll work when the vm will start) >>A. store the configuration at VM start (and use that configuration to start >>after migration) I think it's also more complex, because you need to manage 2 configuration, if you hotplug something, you need to update vmstart config and current config. ----- Mail original ----- De: "Stefan Priebe - Profihost AG" <[email protected]> À: "Dietmar Maurer" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Envoyé: Mercredi 19 Février 2014 12:51:37 Objet: Re: [pve-devel] saving kvm command line for migration Am 19.02.2014 12:24, schrieb Dietmar Maurer: >> B.) is to unflexible. > > I think this is good enough. but what about hot plugging cpus?
