Hi Osier, are there other hypervisors supporting it? And what about qemu's option "snapshot=on" ? Best, Till Am 31.10.2011 04:28, schrieb Osier Yang:

I want to use transient disks with libvirt. According to [1], the transient disk feature has been supported since 0.9.5. Hence, I have installed libvirt 0.9.6 for Ubuntu Lucid from [2] and used the following disk configuration:
<disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source file='/home/till/test.img'/> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> <transient/> </disk>
However, I get: unsupported configuration: transient disks not supported yet
That's because libvirt supported it yet, but qemu still haven't complete the support. Not sure if the newest upstream qemu already supported it though.
