How to create the logical volume with backing store, refer to:
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=tree;f=tests/storagevolxml2xmlin;h=ed26441f354c5183499eae14b56e280fe36c1da6;hb=HEAD

Hi Osier,

So, I have managed to setup an LVM backed pool (koth-main), and
created volumes from this pool:

vol-create-as --pool koth-main --name koth-foo-snap --capacity 2G
vol-create-as --pool koth-main --name koth-foo --capacity 2G
--backing-vol koth-foo-snap

I then performed a virt-install, and after configuring the system
attempted s snapshot, but as you can see it still doesn't work. I get
the same error as before:
snapshot-create koth-foo
error: Requested operation is not valid: Disk '/dev/main/koth-foo'
does not support snapshotting

Sorry for the late, qemu driver only supports domain snapshotting
when the disks' driver type is "qcow2". e.g.

<disk...>
    ......
    <driver name="qemu" type="qcow2"/>
    ......
</disk>


Did I miss a step?

Best,

Casey

Below is the XML for the main volume:

<volume>
   <name>koth-foo</name>
   <key>5er4qK-stqa-zzJn-Npbe-HOeH-aYfs-TULujB</key>
   <source>
     <device path='/dev/sda2'>
       <extent start='417685569536' end='419833053184'/>
     </device>
   </source>
   <capacity>2147483648</capacity>
   <allocation>2147483648</allocation>
   <target>
     <path>/dev/main/koth-foo</path>
     <permissions>
       <mode>0600</mode>
       <owner>0</owner>
       <group>6</group>
     </permissions>
   </target>
   <backingStore>
     <path>/dev/main/koth-foo-snap</path>
     <permissions>
       <mode>0660</mode>
       <owner>0</owner>
       <group>6</group>
     </permissions>
   </backingStore>
</volume>
