this is the right way.

It's return 1 if the vm running, we don't need to run "rbd" command if the vm is running,
using vm_mon_cmd is enough to resize volume.
(this is the qemu rbd block driver which resize the volume and then advertise the guest that the size have changed) 


Just an idea, do you use rbd image format v1 or v2 ? (I only tested it with format v1)
