a problem with using qcow2 format image files as virtual disks
Hi,
In most cases we use image files as virtual disks under the full-virtualization situation.On the version 4.1.2 of xen,I do the following command:
############################################################
dd if=/dev/zero of=myraw.img bs=1M seek=8K count=1
#Before the command below I install the operating system in myraw.img
qemu-img-xen create -b myraw.img -f qcow2 myqcow1.img 20000M

Using virsh blockcopy -- what's it supposed to accomplish?
I am experimenting with the blockcopy command, and after figuring out
how to integrate qemu-nbd, nbd-client and
dumpxml/undefine/blockcopy/define/et. al. I have one remaining question:
What's the point?
The "replication" disk file is not, from what I can ascertain, bootable.
I expect this operation to create a pristine copy of my source qcow2
file (at a given point in time)

[PATCH libnbd] copy/copy-file-to-qcow2-compressed.sh: Skip test for all zeroes disk
Occasionally this test will choose a random seed which results in an
all-zeroes disk. The test tries to convert this to a compressed qcow2
file, and fails because no compressed clusters are detected in the
resulting file. This happens because qcow2 stores zero clusters with
a special sparse representation, they are never stored compressed, so
a disk with only zeroes in it will never contain

[PATCH 1/2] disk-create: Allow preallocation off/metadata/full.
For raw, this allows "off" as a synonym for "sparse" (to make it
consistent with qcow2).
For qcow2, this allows "sparse" as a synonym for "off".
It also adds qcow2 "full" preallocation, which is actually mapped to
the qemu option "falloc" (see arguments about this on the qemu-devel
mailing list, which we lost).
This also updates the

Detach disk from VM - virsh (working) vs. PHP (not working)
Hi all,
i created a script in PHP for create a virtual server with two QCOW2 discs … one is our system for installation and second is target system.
After successfully instalation (create a blank Debian system, prepare all files and grub partitions) i need a restart virtual without a installation disk.
If i use Virsh:
detach-disk --domain debian-test2 --persistent --target vda

Live Disk Backup with Active Blockcommit
Hi!
I was reading the Wiki about 'Live Disk Backup with Active Blockcommit, https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit
and see that example shown seems to be using two different names for the same file.
First showing the current block device in use:
