A number of hypervisors have a mode in which changes made to storage are not persisted across a reboot of the VM. qemu uses the -snapshot flag; VMware refers to this functionality as non-persistent disk[1].

From the point of view of "giving options to end users" then it probably should be.
To implement in QEMU/KVM, it sounds like it could be done by using a snapshot(s), plus nuking the snapshot when the vm is shut down? -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
