That just means that libvirt refuses to create a new block device name (new file names are easy, new block devices not so much); so you'll have to tell libvirt what filename (which may or may not be a block device) to use instead, with the --diskspec parameter. Something like: snapshot-create-as --disk-only --name sn --domain sim --diskspec vdb,file=/path/to/file.sn -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3226 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
