[libvirt-users] storage pool and volume usage question
Hi
I'm creating a storage volume in a storage pool (directory type).
I'd like to create a volume that creates a file in a sub directory under
the directory that the pool points to but am not able to work out how,
maybe it is not possible?
My pool was created using following xml...
<pool type='dir'>
<name>nova-local-pool</name>
<target>
<path>/home/pcarlton/openstack/stuff/instances</path>
<permissions>
<mode>0755</mode>
<owner>1000</owner>
<group>130</group>
</permissions>
</target>
</pool>
The volume was created using this xml...
stgvol_xml = """
<volume>
<name>4291f96a-759a-4b8a-bfe2-7a8ccb118b75-disk</name>
<allocation>0</allocation>
<capacity unit="G">1</capacity>
<target>
<format type='qcow2'/>
<permissions>
<owner>1000</owner>
<group>130</group>
<mode>0644</mode>
<label>image_overlay</label>
</permissions>
</target>
<backingStore>
<path>/home/pcarlton/openstack/stuff/nova/instances/_base/07f224f72581f8e029e08ff96827d581b2321a7b</path>
<format type='raw'/>
<permissions>
<owner>1000</owner>
<group>130</group>
<mode>0644</mode>
<label>image_base</label>
</permissions>
</backingStore>
</volume>"""
All works ok but I'd like the create the 'disk' file in
/home/pcarlton/openstack/stuff/nova/instances/4291f96a-759a-4b8a-bfe2-7a8ccb118b75
Thanks
