I have 2 virtual machines in my ovirt open virtualisation manager.The name of first
virtual machine is backupvm and the name of second virtual machine is secondvm .I have
created many snapshot shot of secondvm I want to convert a particular snapshot ofsecondvm
using the ovirt api to secondvm backup and attach it to backupvm The link of the api is
https://ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-Backups_and_Migration.ht...
.I want to run the fourth step which says.
Attach the snapshot to the backup virtual machine and activate the disk:
POST /api/vms/22222222-2222-2222-2222-222222222222/disks/ HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<disk id="11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111">
<snapshot id="11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"/>
<active>true</active>
</disk>
.I want to attach this snapshots after converting them to backups of vms and then attach
to vm named backupvm.The api for this is mentioned as
The id of secondvm is a88a79ab-1f0c-4f32-bdaa-abc8109b3c0d and the id of backupvm is
a88a79ab-1f0c-4f32-bdaa-abc8109b3c0d.The id of snapshot is
804cb937-5961-4a55-a453-74932c508dd6 and id of disk is
e6c623e3-31d8-4554-ad5a-2b581914494b
I have written a curl command for this as
curl -u 'username:password' -H "Accept: application/xml" -H
"Content-type: application/xml" -X POST -d '<disk
id="e6c623e3-31d8-4554-ad5a-2b581914494b">
<snapshot id="804cb937-5961-4a55-a453-74932c508dd6"/>
<active>true</active>
</disk>'
https:<url>/ovirt-engine/api/vms/a88a79ab-1f0c-4f32-bdaa-abc8109b3c0d/disks/ ;
I expect the vm snapshot to be attached to backupvm.But i am not getting any response
.Hence i am under the assumption that it is not working..
What modification should i make in the curl command to get it working
In the figure below secondvm is labelled as bobcarenewvm
