And similar change should be made to the existing loop. > /* If reuse is true, then qemuDomainSnapshotPrepare already > * ensured that the new files exist, and it was up to the user to > * create them correctly. */ In other words, the code following this comment would be something like the following: if (!reuse) { for (i = 0; i < snapdef->ndisks; i++) { // check depth } for (i = 0; i < snapdef->ndisks; i++) { // create overlay images } } Jirka
