I currently allocate am image equal to the size of the VM memory. Then I simply do an incremental state save (like a vm migration), and keep the VM running until (saved_bytes + remaining_bytes < available_space). This is not perfect, but seems to work. But maybe we need to make that feature optional in future? Another improvement would be to save VM state to absolute positions inside the state file. That way disk usage would be limited, and would use minimal space when file-system support sparse files. But this functionality would require much more work inside qemu code. - Dietmar _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
