** Description changed: + =================================================== + SRU Justification: + 1. Impact: a host reboot loses domain information after a external snapshot + 2. Test case: see comment #2 + 3. Regression potential: this patch is a direct cherrypick from upstream with no churn. It should have no side effects. + =================================================== + Ubuntu 14.04.1 tls trusty Using library: libvirt 1.2.2 Using API: QEMU 1.2.2 Running hypervisor: QEMU 2.0.0 When you create a snapshot through "virsh snapshot-create-as" when a virtual machine is on, then the source tag in the xml is changed. But when you reboot the HOST, then the changes in the source tag are discared (the old/previous source path is used again). I'v reproduced this bug on a clean Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty with fully updated packages. Could not reproduce this on a 12.04 tls, so only 14.04 is affected (with libvirt version 1.2.2) Reproduce: - Create VM => vm.qcow2 - Start VM - Create snashot (through snasphot-create-as) => snapshot.qcow2 - reboot the host - now the old source path is used again => vm.qcow2
