Does libvirt support snapshotting when the virtual disk comes from a vmdk file?
http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Snapshots#Desired_functionality seems to say no, since it
says "'virsh snapshot', which requires all disk images to be qcow2".
OTOH, man virsh,
http://libvirt.org/formatsnapshot.html, and
http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsDisks seem to indicate more flexibility,
though I see nothing about vmdk.
If there is support for vmdk, is it just for external snapshots, or do internal snapshots
work?
Currently running libvirt 0.9.12, qemu-kvm 1.1.2 (though I could use vmware workstation),
linux kernel 3.2.0.
Thanks.
