<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">In Liberty release, we had upstream [1] a security fix to cleanup orphaned instance files from compute nodes for resize operation. To fix this security issue, a
new periodic task '_cleanup_incomplete_migrations’ was introduced that runs on each compute node which queries for deleted instances and migration status in “error” status. If there are any such instances, then it simply cleanup instance files on that particular
compute node.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div style="margin-top:14.0pt;margin-bottom:14.0pt">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Similar issue is reported in LP bug [2] for Live-migration operation and we would like to use the same periodic task to fix this problem. But in case of live migration,
the migration status is set to “failed” instead of “error” status if migration fails for any reason. This change was introduced in patch [3] when migration object support was added for live migration. Due to this inconsistency, the periodic task will not pickup
instances to cleanup orphaned instance files. To fix this problem, we simply want to set the migration status to “error” in patch [4] same as done for resize operation to bring consistency to the code.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div style="margin-top:14.0pt;margin-bottom:14.0pt">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">We have discussed about this issue in the nova meeting [5] and decided that to the client, migration status 'error' vs. 'failed' should be considered the same thing,
it's a failure. From operators point of view, is there any significance of setting migration status to 'error' or 'failed', if yes what is it and what impact it will have if migration status is changed from 'failed' to 'error'. Please provide your opinions
on the same.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
