Hi Simon, how you manage to preform snapshot with the raw format in qemu-kvm VMs? and i found some issues with libvirt virsh commands with ceph: -- 1) create storage pool with ceph via virsh 2) create a vol via virsh - virsh vol-create-as rbdpool VM1 100G
problem is here.. if we directly create vol via qemu-img create -f rbd rbd:rbdpool/VM1 100G, then virsh is unable to find the vol. - virsh vol-list rbdpool command is unable to list the vol, it looks such commands - rbd, virsh and qemu-img creating images are not synced with each other... cloud you please let me know how you use the ceph as backend storage of qemu-kvm, as if i google it, most of the ceph application is used for OpenStack, but not simply pure qemu-kvm. as if setting up Glnace and Cinder is troublesome... thank you!
