mount qcow2 snapshots
- by phhe
I'm running some Xen-servers and started migrating to KVM.
Currently my guests are either running on raw-images or LVMs.
I found libvirt providing some very nice snapshot features (virsh snapshot-create, ...) so I decided to use qcow2 instead of raw/lvm.
And here is my question: libvirt creates the same sort of snapshots on the qcow2 image as if I use qemu-img - is it possible to mount them ? I read something about qemu-nbd and the possibility of mounting qcow but I could not find a word about snapshots.
