All about #24

• lvm state files moved from /etc/valine to /var/lib/valine
• If /var/lib/valine doesn't exist and it needs to be created, valine exits with an explanation of how to create it
• When doing normal printing and an lvm state file exists: replaced calls to sudo lvm lvs with other logic
• All sudo lvm commands are now sudo -n lvm, i.e., requiring nopasswd -- i.e., they fail if sudo needs to ask for a password
• If a statefile doesn't exist for a VM with lvm storage and the current user can't do sudo -n lvm, we gracefully continue -- print a warning to stderr but still display the primary storage as reported by xml
• If a user that can't do sudo -n lvm tries to use new-snap, revert-snap, or Delete-snap, gracefully exit with an error and explanation
• State files get deleted by NUKE now

Wow! I got a little carried away tonight and spent 6 hours on this. Here's the changelog:

• #8 Rename shutdown w/ h shortcut to Shutdown w/ S shortcut
• #2 Add h|hibernate cmd
• #3 Add l|loop-ssh cmd
• #10 Add C|Change-media cmd to insert/eject isos
• #14 Add H|Hard-reboot cmd
• #4 Fix for --all: make start, shutdown, destroy, hibernate execute
  conditionally (e.g., when doing valine -a shutdown it would previously
  print errors for all the VMs that were already off)
• #5 valine --help now automatically pipes itself to less -R
• #6 Intelligently hide subcommands based on VM state, i.e.:
  • Only suggest start if VM is off
  • Only suggest revert-snap & Delete-snap if VM has snapshots
  • Only suggest Change-media if VM has cdrom
  • Only suggest console, Shutdown, Hard-reboot, destroy, hibernate if
    VM is running
• #7 Get rid of forced 2sec sleep when using NUKE
• #17 Enhance valine DOMAIN output, i.e., when run against a VM with no
  subcommand we now also include virsh dominfo and virsh domblklist output
  in addition to snapshot-details

valine was previously housed in https://github.com/ryran/b19scripts ... With some of the future work I have planned, it was time to move it to its own repo. Here's the initial release, which compared to the old one has the following changes:

• /usr/bin/valine instead of /usr/sbin/valine
• No longer requires root access to be run
• Instead, expects you to have added users to the libvirt group for virsh
• For lvm snapshotting, it explicitly calls sudo lvm {lvs|lvcreate|lvremove}
• Renamed subcommands:
  • revert ==> revert-snap
  • Delete ==> Delete-snap
  • new ==> new-snap
• Added subcommand NUKE to delete a VM and all of its storage (has confirmation prompt + a 2 second-pause)

Note that all sub-command short-names are still available -- but don't take my word for it; check the help page. Here's an excerpt:

Starting/stopping/accessing/deleting domains with valine:
 ┐
 │valine DOMAIN {s|start} | {h|shutdown} | {d|destroy} | {c|console} | {K|NUKE}
 │
 │start, shutdown, destroy, console commands are available as a convenience due
 │to virsh's lack of intelligent BASH tab-completion
 │The NUKE command is equivalent to running:
 │  virsh destroy DOMAIN
 │  virsh undefine --snapshots-metadata --remove-all-storage DOMAIN
 └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Managing ALL domains at once with valine:
 ┐  
 │valine --all [ {n|new-snap} | {r|revert-snap} | {s|start} |
 │               {h|shutdown} | {d|destroy} ]
 │
 │Replace DOMAIN with '--all' (or '-a') to operate on all detected domains in
 │parallel (jobs are backgrounded, verbose output is lessened, and cancelling
 │requires double Ctrl-c)
 │Note: Does not work with console or Delete-snap or NUKE commands
 │As above, the --off switch is optional with new-snap and revert-snap
