From a2d665c1bc3624a8375e2f9a7d569f7565cc1358 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Snow Date: Tue, 21 May 2019 17:00:53 -0400 Subject: blockdev: loosen restrictions on drive-backup source node We mandate that the source node must be a root node; but there's no reason I am aware of that it needs to be restricted to such. In some cases, we need to make sure that there's a medium present, but in the general case we can allow the backup job itself to do the graph checking. This patch helps improve the error message when you try to backup from the same node more than once, which is reflected in the change to test 056. For backups with bitmaps, it will also show a better error message that the bitmap is in use instead of giving you something cryptic like "need a root node."
