.... But the snapshot command looks like something I could use. Could you suggest how to proceed and create/start a new vm from that snapshot?

Hi All, I have written script to download a directory from remote machine which contains the always the updated data. I want to download that directory onto my local machine periodically with --link-dest option to my old download directory. I have automated the script using " expect scripting" Following script I have written: $> cat ravi.ex #!/usr/bin/expect -- set LDEST

Hi, My use case involves creating duplicates of saved virtual machines. Tried with virt-manager and with virsh but so far it seems like this case is not supported by these tools. Does anyone know how I could achieve the above? Thanks, Michael

...'t revert to external snapshots yet :) (using QEMU directly would certainly leave me with a lot of manual network configuration) -- Regards Jonas Finnemann Jensen. 2016-04-19 2:23 GMT-07:00 Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com>: > On Mon, Apr 18, 2016 at 10:05:02PM +0300, Michael Ravits wrote: > >> Hi Jonas, >> >> I asked a similar question here last week.

Hi, I would like to save a running domain (ie. disk + memory) and be able to restore it multiple times creating duplicates of the orignal domain all starting from the same state. Use case: I'm building a task-processing system for use in a CI flow. I want to run multiple VMs in parallel using the same image (always starting from the same state). And to avoid needlessly booting between each

Hi Jonas, I asked a similar question here last week. You could find it by searching for this topic in the mailing list archives: "Clone VM with saved state". That being said I'd be very glad if you could update here when you find a complete solution. - Michael On Mon, Apr 18, 2016 at 9:49 PM, Jonas Finnemann Jensen <jonasfj@mozilla.com > wrote: > Hi, > > I would
