thanks for the time you've devoted to this. your assessment seems to be exactly the case, given a little more testing here. i've converted to a disk type of file, and snapshots work [mostly - see my next comment].
i'd never used/tried snapshots with this particular configuration. i'm sure you're right - it probably didn't ever work. although i really do like being able to use pools and volumes, for the sake of structure and organization and being able to avoid literal filesystem paths within guest definitions, i've switched from volumes back to files, since i don' really have a choice if i want snapshots. from a practical standpoint, it would be nice to have this functionality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1417288 Title: unable to create snapshot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1417288/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
