If storage migration is requested, and the destination storage does not exist on the remote host, qemu's migration support will call into the libvirt storage driver to precreate the destination storage.
The storage driver virConnectPtr is opened too early though, adding an unnecessary dependency on the storage driver for several cases that don't require it. This currently requires kubevirt to install the storage driver even though they aren't actually using it.
Push the virGetConnectStorage calls to right before the cases they are actually needed.
This pushes the connection open attempts inside a loop body. So if the VM has multiple disks, then we're going to be repeatedly opening and closing the connection which is not desirable.
I think we need a global connection across all disks, which is lazy opened on first access.
Doesn't virGetConnectStorage() cache the connection? Michal
