The image is overwritten just before the VM is created (qemu-img => ~193kb...).§ I never seen the image to shrink (unless you have corrupted backup, then on the failure it'd revert it to the backuped image, but I guess that's not this case) > > On Tue, Dec 1, 2015 at 3:16 PM, Andrei Stepanov <<a href="mailto:astepano@redhat.com" target="_blank">astepano@redhat.com</a> > <mailto:<a href="mailto:astepano@redhat.com" target="_blank">astepano@redhat.com</a>>> wrote: > > Hello > > I see strange behavior: during > > io-github-autotest-qemu.unattended_install.url.extra_cdrom_ks.default_install.aio_threads > > test image resets in size: > > ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 29M Dec 1 14:55 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 193K Dec 1 14:57 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 193K Dec 1 14:57 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 193K Dec 1 14:57 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 193K Dec 1 14:57 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.2G Dec 1 15:03 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.2G Dec 1 15:03 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.2G Dec 1 15:03 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > [root@spice-bkr02 avocado-data]# ls -lh /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 193K Dec 1 15:05 /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado-data/avocado-vt/images/rhel67-64_client.qcow2 > > > Did you ever see such thing before?
