Each <domainsnapshot> can now contain an optional <memory>
element that describes how the VM state was handled, similar
to disk snapshots. The new element will always appear in
output; for back-compat, an input that lacks the element will
assume 'no' or 'internal' according to the domain state.
Along with this change, it is now possible to pass <disks> in
the XML for an offline snapshot; this also needs to be wired up
in a future patch, to make it possible to choose internal vs.
external on a per-disk basis for each disk in an offline domain.
At that point, using the --disk-only flag for an offline domain
will be able to work.
For some examples below, remember that qemu supports the
following snapshot actions:
qemu-img: offline external and internal disk
savevm: online internal VM and disk
migrate: online external VM
transaction: online external disk
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='no'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
implies that there is no VM state saved (mandatory for
offline and disk-only snapshots, not possible otherwise);
using qemu-img for offline domains and transaction for online.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='internal'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
state is saved inside one of the disks (as in qemu's 'savevm'
system checkpoint implementation). If needed in the future,
we can also add an attribute pointing out _which_ disk saved
the internal state; maybe disk='vda'.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='external' file='/path/to/state'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
This is not wired up yet, but future patches will allow this to
control a combination of 'virsh save /path/to/state' plus disk
snapshots from the same point in time.
=====
So for 0.10.0, I plan to implement this table of combinations,
with '*' designating new code and '+' designating existing code
reached through new combinations of xml and/or the existing
DISK_ONLY flag:
