Hi,
again thanks for your quick answer. I had a look on
https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit
and i liked it. I'm thinking of upgrading my systems to SLES 12 SP3.
With that i have qemu 2.9.1 and libvirt 3.3.0, so it should work.
Yep.
Does this procedure also work with raw files ?
Your *base* image can (IIRC) be raw, but all the overlay files _must_ be
QCOW2. But again, you can test it in 10 minutes on a VM :-)
