https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1228384 Bug ID: 1228384 Summary: virt-install generates unwanted libvirt storage pools when running with --dry-run --print-xml Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Virtualization:Tools Assignee: virt-bugs@suse.de Reporter: claudio.fontana@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Target Milestone: --- Found By: --- Blocker: --- For virtx/vmx2xml we need to run virt-install _just_ to generate the xml. All other features of virt-install are useless for this use case. Therefore we run virt-install with --print-xml --dry-run Still virt-install insists in creating a storage pool for the disks referenced in the domain xml. It should not, as it makes no sense under those command line options. This slows down the rest of the stack (cockpit...) as 100s of unused storage pools are loaded. The workarounds create their own problems. This needs to be addressed upstream. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
