Sometimes upgrades do not work, especially when upgrading from development versions. In this case you can remove the older version and do a clean install using: engine-cleanup engine-setup > I understand that the changes you have made these days at > https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/108991/ are almost final, right?

You can continue to use them. However, why do you try to restore the snapshots ? We discussed this with several backup folks and they were not interested in restoring snapshots, but restoring complete disk. Assuming you backup using snapshots, and you have: backup-day-3.qcow2 backup-day-2.qcow2 backup-day-1.qcow2 To restore a disk to the state in backup-day-3.qcow2 you don't need to upload the snapshot to storage. You can create a chain from these images: qemu-img rebase -u -b backup-day-1.qcow2 -F qcow2 backup-day-2.qcow2 qemu-img rebase -u -b backup-day-2.qcow2 -F qcow2 backup-day-3.qcow2 Note that you don't need to use disk uuids for the rebase, your qcow2 are not uploaded to ovirt so the backing chain is relevant only locally. upload_disk.py read the guest data from the chain and upload the raw data to imageio server in ovirt. Now you have this chain: backup-day-1.qcow2 <- backup-day-2.qcow2 <- backup-day-3.qcow2 (top) You an upload all the data in this chain to a new disk using: upload_disk.py ... --disk-sparse --disk-format raw --sd-name my-domain backup-day-3.qcow2 This is basically like. qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O raw my-domain backup-day-3.qcow2 new-disk.raw So you can continue to use snapshot for backup, but restore to a disk with a single layer. This should be available in ovirt-4.4.0 released 5 days ago. with the limitation that the storage domain cannot be a block domain, > Why block domain is a problem? > in NFS(for example) it works very well!.

You can download a snapshot from any storage without cloning the snapshot. BTW, thanks for your '*backup_disk.py demo*', it looks so good!.
