Hi All,

Live snapshots is support from qemu 1.1. However, qemu 1.1 is not
included in Fedora 17 or Ovirt-node.

Besides the Virt-preview repo, when is qemu 1.1 expected?
Effectively,
there is still no live snapshot support in Ovirt 3.1

The oVirt 3.1 management platform supports live snapshots if you have a qemu release that does.

Fedora doesn't update it's qemu mid-release - so you have 3 choices
Thank you Andrew, that was a much clearer answer then was given before when I asked it. That was what I wanted to know.

- use the virt-preview repo
- wait for F18
When F17 was released, it took a while for oVirt to be available. Is it going to be more or less the same for F18?

- compile your own.

I am afraid you should upgrade qemu manually to 1.1 at least.
Use the virt-preview repository here

Hi all,

As mentioned in the oVirt 3.1 release notes:

"Live snapshotting of virtual machines running on virtualization
hosts
with QEMU 1.1 or higher is now supported".

What about Fedora 17? The Fedora version is still at 1.01:
