Hi all! I wonder if someone is experiencing the following behavior that I think is a bug in virt-clone. When I clone a virtual machine with a qcow disk, the cloned machine changes its disk to raw format. However, the XML configuration file for the cloned machine indicates a qcow type. Due to this inconsistency, a failure occurs when start the cloned virtual machine since Libvirt expect to find a qcow disk, but it is a raw disk. Sequence of steps to reproduce the problem: # virt-clone --original example --name clone1 --file /space/images/clone1.qcow ss01:/var/lib/libvirt/images# file example.qcow2 example.qcow2: QEMU QCOW Image (v3), 2147483648 bytes ss01:/space/images# file clone1.qcow clone1.qcow: DOS/MBR boot sector Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Daniel
