GitHub user daviftorres edited a comment on the discussion: What does Snapshots, Backups, and Incremental Snapshots mean in CloudStack
We upgraded our Dev environment to 4.22, and we are testing instance and volume snapshots to visualize the incremental portion. I can confirm that **instance snapshots** use QCOW2's **internal snapshots**. <img width="907" height="436" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ed118d7c-fe76-4715-abf8-ce985210603a" /> Table `vm_snapshots` <img width="952" height="83" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-20 145759" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fe19196e-51c4-4002-8e21-a4a65632a9e8" /> **Note:** I had to include memory because instance snapshots can only be taken when the instance is in the Running state. Please correct me if I am wrong. GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/discussions/12475#discussioncomment-15553029 ---- This is an automatically sent email for [email protected].
