During graceful shutdown, compute service keep a 2nd RPC
server active which can be used to finish the in-progress
operations. Like live migration, resize and cold migrations
also perform RPC call among source and destination compute.
For those operation also, we can use 2nd RPC server and make
sure they will be completed during graceful shutdown.
A quick overview of what all RPC methods are involved in the
resize/cold migration and what all will be using 2nd RPC server:
Resize/cold migration
- prep_resize: No, resize/migration is not started yet.
- resize_instance: Yes, here the resize/migration starts.
- finish_resize: Yes
- cross cell resize case:
- prep_snapshot_based_resize_at_dest: NO, this is initial check and
migration is not started
- prep_snapshot_based_resize_at_source: Yes, this start the migration
Confirm resize: NO
- confirm_resize: NO
- cross cell confirm resize case:
- confirm_snapshot_based_resize - NO
Revert resize:
- revert_resize - NO
- check_instance_shared_storage: YES. This is called from dest to source
so we need source to respond to it so that revert can continue.
- finish_revert_resize on source- YES, at this stage, revert resize is
in progress and abandoning it here can lead migration to unreocverable
state.
- cross cell revert case:
- revert_snapshot_based_resize_at_dest: NO
- finish_revert_snapshot_based_resize_at_source: YES
