[libvirt-users] virsh snapshot-create and blockcopy

[Thomas Stein]

Hello.

I just tried the following:

virsh dumpxml --security-info gentoo-template > gentoo-template.xml
virsh snapshot-create gentoo-template
virsh undefine gentoo-template
virsh blockcopy gentoo-template vda 
/opt/virt-backup-blockcopy/gentoo-template/gentoo-template.qcow2 --wait 
--verbose --finish
virsh define gentoo-template.xml
virsh snapshot-delete gentoo-template --current

But if i restore the 
/opt/virt-backup-blockcopy/gentoo-template/gentoo-template.qcow2 the 
snapshot is gone.

Someone has an idea what i'm missing? I suppose i'm just 
missunderstandig the snapshot mechanism.

thanks an best regards
t.
