Re: Seeking info for Storage Docs

 

Wrong: Cinder LVM is also a shared backend from the perspective of live
migration. In either case, Nova handles volume-backed instances differently
during live migration. The important distinction in this context is for
ephemeral disks: these will require block migration if local storage on
compute nodes is used instead of Ceph.
