How to accomplish this ? block-mirror with bitmap or is there a qemu-img command ? some details would be appreciated. // backup software now reads foo.img using t0_dirty.dbmp to perform incremental backup, when finished * The backup after few runs in the backup store would be base image + bunch of delta blocks ?

...etter to overload the existing > virDomainBlockCopy() API for it, or to add a new API. So this seems to be already in qemu. How can I try this with KVM context. Do I need to build from source ? or some version of KVM already has this ? > >> // backup software now reads foo.img using t0_dirty.dbmp to perform >> incremental backup, when finished >> >> >> >> * The backup after few runs in the backup store would be base image >> + bunch of delta blocks ?
