This patch allows users to set different path for managed-save images than under /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save; Some sysadmins do have small / and thus /var but don't want to compile libvirt on their own just to override this path.
I agree with Dan; sysadmins are better off working around this by adding mount points. We already document at http://libvirt.org/locking.html that /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock should be a mount point; perhaps what we really need is a single documentation page describing all of the recommended mount points that an administrator should consider setting up (/var/lib/libvirt/sanlock for locking, /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save for managed save, /var/lib/libvirt/image for images, ...). -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
