When reverting to any external snapshot we don't take into consideration which disks were originally excluded and libvirt want's to create overlay for every disk. The reasoning is that skipping these disks could still lead to data corruption, for example consider this situation: snapshot1 disk1 -> external disk2 -> ignored snapshot2 disk1 -> external disk2 -> external When reverting to snapshot1 we cannot skip disk2 so when reverting was implemented we decided that new qcow2 overlay would be always created. The other option would be adding logic that would try to detect if new overlay is required or not. Because of that reason function qemuSnapshotRevertExternalPrepare would skip this disk but it also calls virDomainSnapshotAlignDisks before the skip code where any ignored disk in the original snapshot is included even if VM definition disables snapshots for some disks. > > + > > + if (disk->src->type != VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE) { > > ... so this'd in such case refuse the revert even if the disk state > wouldn't in fact be reverted. > > > + virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_UNSUPPORTED, > > + _("source disk for '%1$s' is not a regural file, reverting to snapshot is not supported"), > > > *regular > > > > > + disk->dst); > > + return -1; > > + } > > + } > > + > > return 0; > > } > > > > -- > > 2.48.1 > > >
