[libvirt-users] Libvirt pool cannot see or create rbd clones

Hello everyone, To increase my odds of finding an answer I also wanted to ask here. This is my post from serverfault[1] in verbatim: While trying to get a cloned disk running from my OS snapshot I run into the problem that Libvirt cannot see existing images cloned from a snapshot. Created via: # rbd -p vmdisks clone vmdisks/coreos_2023@base vmdisks/coreos00.disk The base image has the one snapshot 'base' and is protected. The cloned disk is created just fine: # rbd -p vmdisks info coreos00.disk rbd image 'coreos00.disk': size 8.49GiB in 2174 objects order 22 (4MiB objects) block_name_prefix: rbd_data.48a99c6b8b4567 format: 2 features: layering flags: create_timestamp: Thu Apr 25 14:46:52 2019 parent: vmdisks/coreos_2023@base overlap: 8.49GiB I temporarily have Libvirt configured with a rbd pool that uses the ceph admin user. But I cannot see the cloned disk. Just the parent: virsh # vol-list --pool rbd_image_root Name Path --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- coreos_2023 vmdisks/coreos_2023 If I try to create the cloned image from within virsh I run into the following issue: virsh # vol-clone --pool rbd_image_root coreos_2023 coreos00.disk error: Failed to clone vol from coreos_2023 error: failed to iterate RBD snapshot coreos_2023@base: Operation not permitted Note that this pool uses the Ceph admin user which makes the Operation not permitted a tad odd. Am I missing a configuration option here that would allow for the pool to use clones? I can't find any information on this in the documentation so far. And the source code of libvirt looks like it should support both features.
