Hello everyone, After the Bug with libvirt was found and fixed by Michal I am now looking for a way to actually do the task I intended to do. I cannot find any information if it is possible to clone a base-volume a la vol- clone for ceph rbd. As I posted in my addendum to the first post here I thought something like this volume xml would do the job: <volume> <name>coreos00.disk</name> <capacity unit="bytes">9116319744</capacity> <target> <format type="raw"></format> <permissions> <mode>644</mode> </permissions> </target> <backingStore> <path>vmdisks/coreos_2023</path> <format type="raw"></format> </backingStore> </volume> But even with the fix applied this simply creates an empty volume of the given size. Granted this has no information about the snapshot so I was sceptical that this would be enough in the first place. If the vol-clone is not an option right now via volume xml it's not that wild as I could just patch the terraform-libvirt-provider to do the task beforehand but I wanted to know if it there exists an option for libvirt to do it automatically when provided with an xml. I can't find any options in the storage xml documentation so my guess would be no. Kind regards, Lennart Weller
