So far I've been using files and/or LVM partitions for my VMs -- basically by using virt-manager and modifying existing XML configs and just copying my VM files to be reused. I'm wondering how KVM storage pools work -- at first I thought it was something like KVM's version of LVM where you can just dump all your VMs in one space .. .but it looks like it's really means "different places you want to store your VMs": - dir: Filesystem Directory - disk: Physical Disk Device - fs: Pre-Formatted Block Device - iscsi: iSCSI Target -logical: LVM Volume Group - netfs: Network exported directory I understand things like LVM and storing VMs in a filesystem directory.. but what real difference is there by going through the GUI? I suppose nothing. Maybe I'm overthinking this -- it's just a frontend to where you store your VMs? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
