Let's make error message more user friendly. The problem is libvirtd precreates snapshot image with no write permission = which is not expected by qemu. [1] current error message error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'transaction': Could not create file: Permission denied Signed-off-by: Nikolay Shirokovskiy --- By the way if domain is not active then snapshot is possible. However top i= mage will have write permissions after snapshot. We can make snapshot work for active domain I guess if we precreate writable snapshot image, but then we = end up running readonly disk on writable image. Also making snapshot of readonly disk is not that practical so let's just fix error message for now. src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c index a52e249..e75931e 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c @@ -14683,6 +14683,14 @@ qemuDomainSnapshotPrepare(virDomainObjPtr vm, active, reuse) < 0) goto cleanup; =20 + if (dom_disk->src->readonly && active) { + virReportError(VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED, + _("external snapshot for readonly disk %s " + "of active domain is not supported"), + disk->name); + goto cleanup; + } + external++; break; =20 --=20 1.8.3.1 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
