See <https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/secondary-storage/>, with the exception that if you want to store your VMs in files on ext4, you'd use the 'file' storage driver instead of 'lvm_thin': $ qvm-pool --add <pool name> file -o dir_path=/mnt/your-partition/subdir But note that 'file' is not in the best state. It has the fewest features (online TRIM/discard unsupported; doesn't show which VMs should be restarted to pick up template upgrades; can store only one revision and can't revert to it) and yet the most complex code. So consider just adding a regular 'lvm_thin' pool, like on the webpage. Another, more bleeding-edge alternative - if you can set up your partition as btrfs rather than ext4 - would be the 'file-reflink' driver. In my biased opinion (having written it) it's solid. Though you may want to wait for the qubes-core-dom0-4.0.30 package, which will presumably include lots of recent improvements and a safety check* before 'qvm-volume revert'. Rusty * 'qvm-volume revert' on a 'file-reflink' volume of a running or not cleanly stopped VM used to essentially throw away the revision. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJbn4hWXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ4NEI1OUJDRkM2MkIxMjlGRTFCMDZEMDQ0 NjlENzhGNDdBQUYyQURGAAoJEEadePR6ryrfKU0QAJGutU6eXem66oOwgWIh1Zef IRcS7+AEXKgQBVMibVqepFWn0jMxy1AQd9RS4zrtrGb1phDmgmJMqhTBHqdYqkHU 6pgN+jMfif/4zPzLCaIpUNQLpIUKQQe7RK85JF6OUsyy8QVERslCnfY2hKOdHm/r 9iCjG33C/bGb1K+sefU0s5AqXZrc7nsBg5rpIpfpZMnsZAsMPONv92maqPa4xmHt 8VkYRYQ6ujhgOHyggp+vbFhpH6778qoROdcrCCWuE7GLYAJfv4I6jTuYoul8CTCC 3yvkKz9lL3Jd3mUyl3ChwZftn8dtwSm/wC5iR0+ceN2xj1AyGIawW8u7uxeEo1ll 3WsObi9tg1AOJNPtEbXgEbbzSgbnLP6vw42BPn6rQVZOj9j+hm3M86Z+Q66rQI1Y 0zgYtFNijUHBlWe4M5c222vyOjtkCRivVug2B6yhOLsb+MrAau4nlIssZYbO2UHm jRmTkSntdGjNAdaymxFN63i9rM4IYmbIdJG0U0LP+gWu7qfcLeuzKQX4rzVQcCq1 39QqK6heKe/OgZyW68N0TXkoXsCLGExgOxi/WIgdmTxiOKTeTyupniZe6aw8Qx2L r2piIf4q6wyTKarbXGgOWpuU6R2K82iWVj3RADzwlo/1nQxWwkjfDdfHA6TbHHws 8xVBNGRxTpCE/PXv7DNU =n5Mm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
