PDM Cross-Cluster Migration problems

Hello lovely people,

Ive tested the PDM Cross-Cluster migration and I found some problems:
  • VMID on target taken
    • It puts the source VMID as placeholder into the field.
    • There is no validation if this VMID is free on the target in this form.
    • Clicking "Migrate" validates the VMID and sees that is taken.
    • Could you automatically take the next free VMID if the default (source) VMID is taken pls?
  • HA is enabled on the source VM
    • The migrations fails if the source cluster has HA enabled on the source VM.
    • Cant you just set HA to "ignored" at the start of the migration pls?
  • "Delete Source" does not delete all config
    • If "delete source" is checked, I expected that all config of this VM is deleted from the source cluster.
    • I found the HA entry for a lot of migrated & deleted VMs.
    • I suspect that Backup Config Jobs wouldnt get deleted too, but I dont have a specific Backup Job per VM, just one Backup-Job for all VMs.
    • Could you please remove the VM from all configs like checkbox at the "Remove VM"-dialog pls?
  • Adding a user to PDM with the realm pam
    • It sort of adds the user, but there is an error with the API...
  • Adding a user to PDM with the realm pdm
    • I can add the user and give it all permissions and login...
    • But the dashboards show some missing permissions etc.
    • Cluster-Migration seems to work, but I get all kinds of popups with permission problems.
Overall I was impressed by the speed and ease-of-use of this feature.

Having cross-cluster live migration is awesome!

Thank you!
