Aha, now this is getting somewhere. ------------------ (qemu) info status VM status: paused (io-error) (qemu) info block hd: vm.img (raw) I/O status: nospace Detect zeroes: unmap ide1-cd0: [not inserted] Removable device: not locked, tray closed floppy0: [not inserted] Removable device: not locked, tray closed sd0: [not inserted] Removable device: not locked, tray closed (qemu) info block-jobs No active jobs ------------------ So this seems to be an transient ENOSPC error returned to the data writing process by the FS during snapshotting. I can now reproduce this without KVM, just with dd. Seems not much to do with KVM then, I will post more details to the btrfs list. Thanks! -- With respect, Roman
