Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] migration: do not restore labels on failed migration

The problem at hand is that when migrating between different
configurations, the destination first attempts to label files before
even starting qemu - and does a chown() to root:root.
IMHO making libvirt work in the face of such admin mis-configurations
is out of scope.
We should really consider whether we need more framework for
diagnosing
incompatible configurations between source and destination, and outright
rejecting migration where two machines do not share the same user/group
setup.
I tend to view this as a general OS management problem. Tools like
puppet/chef/etc should be used to manage your virt hosts to avoid
inconsistent configs between hosts.
