you're right i missed this. This is also the reason why qemu-img does not support STDIN and STDOUT. So we need to upload the whole image to a TMP dir and import it later. May be we can use the Template dir for that? > One way is to implement an nbd server daemon/agent on the source server or > user desktop(where the source file are located) > " > Then qemu-img could use it as source. But that involves the user being able to start this agent / daemon.
