Hi,
if I try to create another volume using the previous one as backing-vol, the creation fails with what looks like an incorrect commandline for lvcreate:
# virsh vol-create-as images_lvm myvol-instance 2G --backing-vol myvol error: Failed to create vol myvol-instance error: internal error Child process (/usr/sbin/lvcreate --name myvol-instance -L 2097152K -s=/dev/libvirt_images_vg/myvol) unexpected exit status 3: /usr/sbin/lvcreate: invalid option -- '=' Error during parsing of command line.
this has been fixed in 1.0.2 by commit ffee627a: http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=ffee627a
Exactly the same happens if I specify a qcow2 format (the doc however says that The logical volume pool does not use the volume format type element).
Yes, volume format has no effect on logical pools. Jan
