The problem is, this disk has external snapshots. The process tried was:<br> <br> 1 - Attach a disk in the domain:<br> virsh# attach-device instance-00000006 /tmp/disk.xml[1] --live<br> <br> 2 - Snapshot the disk[2]:<br> virsh# snapshot-create instance-00000006 --quiesce --xmlfile /tmp/snap-from-disk.xml[2] --disk-only<br> <br> 3 - Dump the domain XML and create a new disk file from it:<br> virsh# dumpxml instance-00000006<br> ... [3]<br> <br> 4 - Dettach the device and re-add it using the new disk file:<br> virsh# detach-device instance-00000006 /tmp/disk-with-snap.xml[4]<br> Device detached successfully<br> virsh# attach-device instance-00000006 /tmp/disk-with-snap.xml<br> error: Failed to attach device from /tmp/disk-with-snap.xml<br> error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add': Property 'virtio-blk-device.drive' can't find value 'drive-virtio-disk1'<br> <br> Question, is this operation supported?
