PVE 8.2.4
I found that it is possible to migrate the vm to a host in another HA group
this results a flap, a migration and immediate return to the previous host.

expected action: error message and migration denied.

Example:
given:
cluster has 4 nodes
2 HA groups: first one consists of pve and pve1 nodes
second one consists of pve2 and pve3 nodes

want to migrate vm101 which is bind to group1 (pve and pve1)

  1. migrate vm101 from pve node to pve2 node (ha group2)
    vm101 gets migrated then pve2 immediately migrates it again to pve (ha group1)

expected: refuse to migrate, throw an error

I have it configured properly.
Rather I was thinking that there is lack of checking if destination group is right and prevent migration beforehand.
