[libvirt] [Libvirt]Snapshot operations in Libvirt

Hi all, I see our libvirt snapshot XML form like following, which this XML is to create a disk snapshot of just vda on a qemu domain with two disks. <domainsnapshot> <description>Snapshot of OS install and updates</description> <disks> <disk name='/path/to/old'> <source file='/path/to/new'/> </disk> <disk name='vdb' snapshot='no'/> </disks> </domainsnapshot> My understanding about up XML is like this: it creates a snapshot for '/path/to/old', which '/path/to/old' would be the read-only backing file to the new active file '/path/to/new'. I also have some questions about current libvirt snapshot operations like following. 1, Is my up understanding right? Or maybe you have any other suggestions. 2, I wonder whether libvirt *NOW* support start a snapshot and then mount this new storage block, which is based on the snapshot. Please give me some real examples (like Sheepdog volumes) if you can. -- Thanks Harry Wei
