Qemu doesn't handle that level of abstraction. The closest approximation you could probably come up with is qemu-img's backing file support for qcow2 images. You should stick to using the rbd tool to create clones of rbd devices. Alternatively, use a higher level tool (like openstack, etc)

of every backend device it supports. In the case of qcow2, the support exists because of the whole system snapshotting feature. Otherwise it's bloat that Qemu doesn't normally handle (it's left to the management layers above to handle). --Iggy thanks At 2014-07-02 11:36:12, Brian
