Title:
  Live Migration (block_migrate): "Disk of instance is too large", with
  cinder LVM based volume

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  When live migrating (block_migrate), an instance, cinder volumes based on LVM, that are attached via iscsi to the compute node, are  included within the MigrationPreCheck disk-size calculation. 
  Because the cinder iscsi volume is just attached to the migration target node, these devices need to be skipped.

  In the past only devices with type 'file' got included in that
  disk_size calculation; But with commit
  5fa74bc0b2ab6fe5149a9b684b4beadb67877622 (Adds ephemeral storage
  encryption for LVM back-end images ), disks with type 'block' got
  included as well, which also includes iscsi devices.

  I experienced that with stable juno.

  I worked around that with this additional check:

  diff --git a/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py b/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py
  index 0809f09..566b2b2 100644

                   continue

  +            if disk_type == 'block' and path.find('iqn.2010-10.org.openstack') > 0:
  +                LOG.debug('skipping disk because it looks like an iscsi volume', path)

               # raise a localized error if image is unavailable
               if disk_type == 'file':

  
  If this is the right place to exclude that disks, I can submit that little patch for review. Or you can point me to the right location for that and I'll give it a try.

  What do you think?
