I want to set up kvm/qemu virtualization on personal notebook (debian
13) and have one issue I need to address.
I am running on btrfs taking regular snapshots for the / directory,
which lead to high hard disk usage due to all snapshots being made of
qcow2 images of vms (being located in /var/lib/libvirt/images in the
past ...
In order to avoid running into such a situation again I am thinking on
how to set this up a little different. 2 ideas is this regards:
1. setting up a btrfs subvol for the mentioned directory (prior
installation)
2. putting the image file elsewhere (which would also be a subvol)
what would you suggest?
... while writing this I feel #2 would be the better way to approach.
So the question (if you agree) ... is it the |--disk path= option|in a
virt-install command, that would take care of that?
