Hook script not executed on source host of migrating VM

[gurubert]

Hi,
to see how hook scripts work I created a very basic script and placed it on a storage available to each node:

#!/bin/bash

echo "$@" | logger -i -p local4.info -t snippet-test

When migrating a VM between the nodes I only see log entries for "pre-start" and "post-start" hooks on the destination host but nothing on the source host.

And as the VM is live migrated shouldn't there be other hooks than pre-start and post-start?

IIRC, unfortunately pre/post migration hook scripts aren't implemented yet [1]. The source PVE will have no clue the VM is no longer running in it.

And the destination PVE thinks it just started a new VM.
