Currently, nova backup only support image type instance. When using 'freezer-agent --action backup --engine nova --nova-inst-id xxx --mode nova --no-incremental true' to backup instance that boot from volume or snapshot, it gives us the result of successful backup. But when we restore and launch the instance from the backup data, it will fail with 'no boot device error' message. This patch add support for backup of volume boot nova instance and will fix the issue. Change-Id: Ibd87087c5f631fc47357395e9ed7ca23b7844a51 Closes-Bug: #1685763

Currently, when using 'freezer-agent --action backup --engine nova
|
|
--nova-inst-id xxx --mode nova --no-incremental true' to backup instance
|
|
that boot from volume or snapshot, it gives us the result of successful
|
|
backup. But when we restore the nova instance from the backup data and
|
|
launch the restored instance, it will fail with 'no boot device error'
|
|
message. This can be an issue.
|
|
|
|
fixes:
|
|
- |
|
|
With the above issue, freezer can not support the backup and restore of
|
|
instance that boot from volume or snapshot correctly. With this fix, when
|
|
using backup, freezer will create an image from the volume, and then
|
|
store the image data to storage media. After this fix, users can backup
|
|
and restore the nova instance no matter what type of the instance is.
