Hello If I'm not terribly mistaken, looks like libvirt 1.2.1 does not provide ability of merging only a subset of the entire chain of backing files. So, if I have a chain like this: root <- a <-b <- c <- d <- active ... and I'd like to obtain a chain like this: root <- c <- d <- active ... looks like it's not supported, since I'm trying the command virsh blockpull domain --path /path/to/c --bandwidth 30 --base /path/to/root (1) ... but it complains because --path /path/to/c is not recognized, since only --path /path/to/active is acceptable: virsh blockpull domain --path /path/to/active --bandwidth 30 --base /path/to/root (2) So, command (1) fails but command (2) succeeds. The point is: How could I obtain the results I'm trying to achieve via command (1) ? I'm new to libvirt, but the article below made me think that what I'm trying to do would be possible: http://kashyapc.fedorapeople.org/virt/lc-2012/snapshots-handout.html ( see section on blockpull ) Thoughts? For your information, my environment is: Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.1 Thanks --
