Re: [Users] Problems with snapshots
Thanks Itamar, The thing is that export doesn't copy the direct lun. About snapshots, can it be done if the lun has lvm? I used to make a sort of live backup using lvm snapshots with this luns, maybe this can be done within ovirt in a future version.

Anyway, I'm trying to make backup from the vms by cloning the vms and exporting them, but even exporting a shut down vm does not copy the disk. Is exporting of a direct lun possible with ovirt? so as explained, snapshot are currently not supported for shared disks and for direct lun disks. export of direct lun disk should work though. allon?

Re: [Users] Problems with snapshots
Hi Liron, Thanks for the reply. If I get what you said, when I take a snapshot of a vm, disk don't get copied, am I right? The system disk of the vm is not shared, is dedicated to that vm and in the engine is not declared as shared. How can I backup a live vm if it's not by a snapshot,?
