New issue 155 by [email protected]: qcow2 and other formats not supported
http://code.google.com/p/ganeti/issues/detail?id=155


Currently only raw images are supported, having qcow2 or other type of images supported would be a plus.

For example, qcow2 supports snapshots, compression, ...

I'm running 2.4.1 version and I see at hypervisor/hv_kvm.py this hardcoded string:

      drive_val = 'file=%s,format=raw%s%s%s' % (dev_path, if_val, boot_val,
                                                cache_val)

I could try to provide patches, but this needs some kind of property in the instances and thus needs a name, so, being a newbie on all this... I guess it would be better if you could provide them.

gnt-cluster (ganeti v2.4.1) 2.4.1
Software version: 2.4.1
Internode protocol: 2040000
Configuration format: 2040000
OS api version: 20
Export interface: 0

I'm running Debian squeeze,

Thanks in advance.
