Any response would appreciated, it makes it easier to plan a migration. ovirt 3.1 has support for live snapshots. as Jason indicated, the gap is actually in the qemu version in fedora 17. Awesome news, thanks! Two follow-up questions about that 1) ovirt-engine flashes up a screen saying that it can´t do snapshot because the guest is active. If/when qemu gets updated, will the engine automatically stop complaining and snapshot live, or will the engine require update as well? 2) Do you think qemu-1.1 is going to be available for F17, like ever? Like through backporting, MFC, whatnot? Hacking/rebuilding rpm´s is something only RH employees should be engaged in, purely for testing. I have enough troubles getting out of bed as it is, haha:) Med Vänliga Hälsningar --- Karli Sjöberg Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Box 7079 (Visiting Address Kronåsvägen 8) S-750 07 Uppsala, Sweden Phone: +46-(0)18-67 15 66 karli.sjob...@slu.semailto:karli.sjob...@adm.slu.se ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

It works for me now with the current 3.1 beta, as long as my host is running qemu 1.1. I've been taking qemu 1.1 packages for F18 (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=344871) and rebuilding them for F17.
