Hi,
The qemu operation progress is parsed [1] and is printed on debug level in
Vdsm log [2].
In the UI, a progress indication of the operation is available on the disks
status for the "Move Disk" operation.
Currently only for this operation.
Regards,
Fred

I confirm that the snapshot of the VM, named "Auto-generated for Live
Storage Migration" has been removed after the disk moving completion.
Also, for a preallocated disk the "qemu-img convert" has format options
raw/raw:
[root@ov300 ~]# ps -ef|grep qemu-img
vdsm 18343 3585 1 12:07 ? 00:00:04 /usr/bin/qemu-img convert
-p -t none -T none -f raw /rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/
5ed04196-87f1-480e-9fee-9dd450a3b53b/images/303287ad-
b7ee-40b4-b303-108a5b07c54d/fd408b9c-fdd5-4f72-a73c-332f47868b3c -O raw
/rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/fa33df49-b09d-4f86-9719-
ede649542c21/images/303287ad-b7ee-40b4-b303-108a5b07c54d/
fd408b9c-fdd5-4f72-a73c-332f47868b3c
for a thin provisioned disk instead it is of the form qcow2/qcow2
[root@ov300 ~]# ps -ef|grep qemu-img
vdsm 28545 3585 3 12:49 ? 00:00:01 /usr/bin/qemu-img convert
-p -t none -T none -f qcow2 /rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/
5ed04196-87f1-480e-9fee-9dd450a3b53b/images/9302dca6-
285e-49f7-a64c-68c5c95bdf91/0f3f927d-bb42-479f-ba86-cbd7d4c0fb51 -O qcow2
-o compat=1.1 /rhev/data-center/mnt/blockSD/fa33df49-b09d-4f86-9719-
ede649542c21/images/9302dca6-285e-49f7-a64c-68c5c95bdf91/
0f3f927d-bb42-479f-ba86-cbd7d4c0fb51
BTW: the "-p" option should give
-p display progress bar (compare, convert and rebase commands
only). If the -p option is not used for a
command that supports it, the progress is reported when the
process receives a "SIGUSR1" signal.
Is it of any meaning? I don't see any progress bar/information inside the
gui? Is it perhaps in any other file on filesystem?
Thanks,
Gianluca
