As Michal and Daniel said, this should not be a problem.  Also, you can
check the content is the same using virt-diff (part of libguestfs):

  # virt-diff \
      -a /var/lib/libvirt/images/sda/143177 \
      -A /var/lib/libvirt/images/sda/test > log

Most probably log should be empty, since the actual content of the
image did not change.
