Hi,
I am trying to find info about whether block commit of an offline domain
is possible?
Historically I know it was not supported and I wanted to confirm whether
that is still the case. I did not notice mention about the limitation in
the libvirt domain API docs or in the virsh docs.
I'm investigating in the context of OpenStack Nova -- we have had a
feature request brought back up recently to be able to delete an
"intermediary" image in a backing chain while the VM is shutdown. And
from what I understand, we would need to be able to call
virDomainBlockCommit for a domain that is not running [1] as part of it.
So I'm just looking to learn about the current state of support.
Thanks for any information,
-melwitt
