&quot;4.2.0-0.0.master.201711140711<wbr>05.gitdfdc401.el7.centos&quot;<br>
2hosts+2NFS-domains<br>

During the multiple disk movement between the domains I am getting this warning:<br>
Moving disks while the VMs are running.(this is not so scary red as in<br>

<br>
What kind of problems can happen during the movement?<br>
