Even if you restart the vm, sheepdog doesn't reopen the image and the rollback doesn't happen.

Even if you wrongly rollback to a snapshot, you don't lose any data because the previous image is kept as a snapshot. $ ./collie/collie vdi tree image1---[2012-08-24 15:44]-+-[2012-08-24 15:44]---[2012-08-24 15:45] |-[2012-08-24 15:46] `-(you are here) Thanks, Kazutaka -- -- Alexandre D e rumier Ingénieur Systèmes et Réseaux Fixe : 03 20 68 88 85 Fax : 03 20 68 90 88 45 Bvd du Général Leclerc 59100 Roubaix 12 rue Marivaux 75002 Paris -- sheepdog mailing list sheepdog@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/sheepdog
