[Bug 1257355] [NEW] live migration fails when using non-image backed disk

 

Public bug reported:

running live migration with --block-migrate fails if the disk was
resized before (aka detached from the cow image). This is because
nova.virt.libvirt.driver.py uses disk_size, not virt_disk_size for re-
creating the qcow2 file on the destination host. in the case of qcow2
files, qemu-img however needs to get the virt_disk size passed down,
otherwise the block migration step will not be able to convert all
blocks.
