Hello,
please, is there some way how to cancel VM cloning in progress? To be
more specific, to cancel volume allocation.
And since we are on the topic, why is volume allocation so slow even for
VM that's shut off?
Cloning has been initiated via virt-tools resp. virt-manager.
Thank you for reply,
Zdenek
And to answer myself.
1] lsof <image_that's_being_cloned> && kill that process
2] being slow ~ since I wanted to keep format as a source, why not to
just % cp; instead qemu and convert? This one I don't understand.

/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O qcow2 <src> <trgt>

But it surely does explain why is it "so" slow, because % cp; is matter
of seconds.
Oh well, everything is good now :)
Have a nice day,
Zdenek
