Re: [Bug 1025244] Re: qcow2 image increasing disk size above the virtual limit
@Mario, the external snapshots have apparently been around a long time. The ability to create external snapshots from running vms is newer, but it appears to exist evn in qemu-kvm 1.0. So all versions in Debian and Ubuntu should support them. http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/Snapshots#Snapshot_command_flow -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025244 Title: qcow2 image increasing disk size above the virtual limit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1025244/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
Re: [Bug 1025244] Re: qcow2 image increasing disk size above the virtual limit
For the record, the workaround is deleting old snapshots in shutdown mode as per comment #14. Upstream has moved toward external snapshots as the way forward, so while I don't argue that this is a bug, it seems unlikely to receive a fix from upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025244 Title: qcow2 image increasing disk size above the virtual limit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1025244/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
