[ovirt-users] Re: Problem when re-attaching domain - some vms disapered

You could possibly create a new disk image if qemu recognizes the backing files. Check if qemu detects the backing files: #qemu-img info path/to/snapshot If it shows the previous snapshot or full disk image as "backing file", you can try to create a new image which inclused changes in snapshots: 1. Create a new image file that has same properties and size as original full disk image: #qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b full/disk/image/file new/disk/image 2. The following command should automatically detect backing files and merge them into the new image file: #qemu-img convert -U -p -O qcow2 -c new/disk/image new/image/with_no_backing_files Hope this helps.
