[ovirt-devel] Snapshots & clone support from datastore

[Deepak Jagtap]

Hi Allon,


After going through current vdsm code base, noticed that after taking a snapshot vm starts referring the newly created qcow image/volume.

For internal snapshots which are not qcow  is it configurable somehow so that vm continues doing writes to same base image?


Thanks & Regards,

Deepak

Unfortunately, there's no such integration point at the moment.

Hey Guys,


I am newbie to ovirt, and wanted to confirm whats the best way to leverage snapshot, clone features

provided by the datastore filesystem.

I have a btrfs datastore exported and wanted use btrfs snapshots for vm snapshot & clones.

Does ovirt offers any hooks/APIs so that image snapshots are created by the filesystem?


Thanks & Regards,

Deepak
