Re: [ovirt-users] Question: Where does Ovirt stores VM snapshots?

[Fred Rolland]

Hi,

Welcome !!

The VM disks are stored on Storage Server over the network (NFS,ISCSI,FC)
[1] , unless you use Hyperconverged setup [2]

The disks snapshots are on the same location. Ovirt makes the image read
only and add a COW layer above it.

Regards,

Fred

[ovirt-users] Question: Where does Ovirt stores VM snapshots?

[Shashwat shagun]

Hi,
I’m new to Ovirt, I just wanted to know where does Ovirt stores VM snapshots 
(On the hosts?) and
It stores the VM virtual hard drives on hosts right? Because wouldn’t it’ll be 
slow if they stores it on a Network drive?

P.S sorry for my bad English, English is not my first language
