Public bug reported: We are working on an Ubuntu 14.04 tls server with qemu & libvirt.
We are running a virtual machine and we make snapshots through: virsh snapshot-create-as $name $date --diskspec $device,file=$path$name"/"$name"_"$date"."$extension --disk-only --atomic Everything good so far, this is running for almost 3 years now. But since we updated from libvirt 1.0.2 (ubuntu 12.04) to libvirt 1.2.2 (package version 13.7), we are having problems. After we make a snapshot and reboot the host server, we have after the restart an old xml file ! Steps to reproduce: - starting VM - virsh edit vmname (you'll see at the source ...name.qcow2) - now create snapshot (command above) - virsh edit vmname (now you'll see in the source, the snapshotname ...snapshotname.qcow2) - now rebooting the server - after reboot: virsh edit vmname (and you'll see the old XML file => source ...name.qcow2 instead of ...snapshotname.qcow2) We have succesfully reproduced this bug at a clean system, fully updated.
