Re: [libvirt] vm live storage migration with snapshots

goes in)? I learned that drive_mirror in qemu is built to finish this, but
do not understand clearly. Could you elaborate for me, or provide an
example?

Use 'virsh migrate --copy-storage-inc' to migrate only the incremental
changes, which assumes that the destination can already see the same
read-only backing data th...

vm live storage migration with snapshots
Hi all,
I'm investigating the ways to improve the live migration performance in
libvirt. I have a question about the vm live storage migration. the
platform is libvirt + qemu + kvm
If we want to migrate a running vm with its virtual disk images to another
node.
we can use 'virsh migrate ....' commands.
What if this vm has a number of disk-only external snapshots? In the
