I agree that Delete is misleading, but it kind of works (as long as you remember that in the merge case, the data being deleted is not the snapshot parameter that you passed to the function call, but the delta in state between the more-recent content that is being rolled back to the state it was earlier during the snapshot). Maybe some other ideas would work: virDomainSnapshotCleanup or virDomainSnapshotRecycle? After all, the goal of this API is to reduce the amount of storage pool being used to store snapshot images. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
