KNOWN BUGS in xen-tools
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Bugs to fix rather soon
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
* `xen-delete-image` doesn't remove all logical volumes if `--partitions` is used.
|
|
|
|
See the link below for details how to reproduce. Reproducable at
|
|
least with `--lvm`. Thanks to Antoine Benkemoun for reporting.
|
|
|
|
[Bug Report](http://xen-tools.org/pipermail/xen-tools-discuss/2010-May/000757.html)
|
|
|
|
* `xen-delete-image` ignores extension setting
|
|
|
|
* partitions were mounted in config file order, not in mountpoint order.
|
|
That implies that if you specified :
|
|
|
|
/boot
|
|
/
|
|
|
|
in that order, `/` was mounted _over_ `/boot`, and you would not
|
|
_see_ `/boot`. Xen-Tools would then install `boot` on your `/`
|
|
partition, and your boot device was just empty and unbootable.
|
|
|
|
Workaround for 4.2 is to write your partition file such as mounts overlap
|
|
correctly when mounted in specified order.
|
|
|
|
Current (unreleased) fix is to sort by mountpoint length.
|
|
|
|
Fix would be to reproduce what mount does with mount `-a`.
|
|
|
|
* `xen-create-image` doesn't unmount the `tempdir` properly if `/proc`
|
|
wasn't mounted inside
|
|
|
|
* `xen-create-image` says on startup summary that the Debian mirror is
|
|
used even if Ubuntu is going to be installed (and works)
|
|
|
|
* `xen-list-images` does not honour `--extension`
|
|
|
|
* `--extension=''` (i.e. empty string) no more works
|
|

|
Bugs to fix later
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
`t/xen-tools.t` can't really test Xen::Tools as the latter requires a
|
|
local Xen installation. For proper testing, a dummy set of Xen
|
|
configuration files and configurable paths to them in `Xen::Tools`
|
|
would be necessary.
