Balazs Gibizer fd351903a1 Reject forced move with nested source allocation
Both os-migrateLive and evacuate server API actions support a force
flag. If force is set to True in the request then nova does not call the
scheduler but instead tries to blindly copy the source host allocation
to the desitnation host. If the source host allocation contains
resources from more than the root RP then such blind copy cannot be done
properly. Therefore this patch detects such situation and rejects
the forced move operation if the server has complex allocations on the
source host.

There is a separate bluperint
remove-force-flag-from-live-migrate-and-evacuate that will remove the
force flag in a new API microversion.

Note that before the force flag was added to these APIs Nova bypassed the
scheduler when the target host was specified.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
