Open Stack

FWIW, I've opened https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1039065

I'll get my implementation into review.openstack.org.

Tom

There are no hints since they weren't saved and unless the person issuing the migration command remembers the desire for affinity, it becomes a matter of luck if the affinity will be broken. To me this makes the case that if scheduler_hints are initially passed they should be saved, such that if there is a later migration the filter should be applied against the desired destination and if that destination doesn't pass the filter an error should be raised.
