...RHEL 5 (Eric Blake), I read that to mean that libvirt 1.0.3 is tested with the most recent RHEL 5.X releases? Together with a matching qemu? But I see nothing else that indicates which KVM virtualization releases works with RHEL 6.3, 6.4, etc. Anyone know where one can find out?

All, Using Centos 6.4 with provided libvirt: [root@node1 ~]# rpm -q libvirt libvirt-1.0.1-2.el6.x86_64 Assume a VM with one or more live snapshots. In virsh the VM snapshots can be listed. With virsh: - Stop and undefine this VM. - Then define (and start) this VM. The new VM does not have the list of snapshots. Is there a way with virsh to rebuild the metadata such that

...to the base image as per qemu-img info. How/where do I update the metadata so that virsh displays the correct thing? I.e. the committed snapshot should disappear? Is it as simple as removing the committed snap? Do I have to restart anything to get the virsh output correct? Cheers, Harald Skardal, Stratus Technologies.

I have not found support in libvirt (nor virsh) for doing the equivalent of "qemu-img rebase ....". The use case: You have copied a qcow2 stack and the new files have different names or reside in a different directory. Therefore you need to change the backing file. Is there a way to do this? Is this a planned addition to libvirt? Harald -------------- next part

...is capability that is said to be available in qemu, what is a safe workflow to delete old live KVM snapshots w/o losing data. Do I need to pause/shut down the VM? The development environment is Fedora 18 with qemu, libvirtd and libvirt upgrades to the more recent stable versions.

All, Our testing seems to indicate that Qemu-1.4.0-2 and Qemu-1.4.0-1 is broken on virt-preview and rawhide. I'm getting undefined symbol: usbredirparser_send_start_bulk_receiving when running qemu-system-x86_64 -version.. Do others see this issue? Is there a known solution? Harald Failing cases:

Does the libvirt development team have a sense of when/which version of libvirt will support the deletion of live snapshots, incl. the coalesce. With the restriction that you cannot delete the most recent snapshot! Harald -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
