Yes used qcow2 format only when compressing, I don't think due to older
version problem

2017-01-17 Thread Thomas Huth
When reporting bugs, please always use the latest version of QEMU, old
versions like 2.1 are not supported anymore. I just also noticed that
Stefan Hajnoczi replied to the bug mail on the qemu-devel mailing list
(see https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg422186.html)
- seems like the bridge did not mirror this to the bug tracker:

"QEMU image compression uses the compression feature available in some
 disk image formats (like qcow2).  This is not the same as compressing a
 file with gzip, bzip2, or similar tools.
 Therefore this error is expected and not a bug."

QEMU image compression uses the compression feature available in some
disk image formats (like qcow2).  This is not the same as compressing a
file with gzip, bzip2, or similar tools.

Therefore this error is expected and not a bug.
