[libvirt-users] virsh blockcommit hangs at 100%

hi, i am trying to blockcommit a external qcow2 snapshot back into its raw backing file like: sudo virsh blockcommit myDomainName vda --wait --verbose the output just shows: Block Commit: [100 %] and stays like that (i waited about an hour or so...). No "Commit complete" message. - explicitly passing --base and/or --top arguments makes no difference. - did not find a related log entry in syslog and consorts env: - ubuntu server 14.04 x64 - libvirt-bin 1.2.2-0ubuntu13 i doubt that it just takes hours to complete after "100%", right? any ideas? kind of a dead-end for me :/ thanks, zyro
