Hello,
I am running libvirt 0.8.3 with a couple VMs using a LVM VG that I had previously setup on my host. I did not use the storage pool functionality of libvirt to create the VG in the first place ('pool-list' is empty).
Now I want to be able to take snapshots of the VMs. Having read this previous post [1] on the mailing list, I gather that libvirt does indeed support taking snapshots of VMs on an LVM. I suppose I need to create storage pool that includes the<backingStore> element. However, I am not sure how to go about creating this pool and making my existing VMs utilize it.
Is what I am trying to do even possible? If so, what is the proper way to go about doing it?
How to create the logical pool, refer to: http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=tree;f=tests/storagepoolxml2xmlin;h=... How to create the logical volume with backing store, refer to: http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=tree;f=tests/storagevolxml2xmlin;h=e... Hope it helps. Regards Osier
Best, Casey Link
