Eric Blake 2013-11-27 14:06:40 UTC Doc Text Cause: libvirt was treating all network-addressed storage (including images accessed via gluster) as raw

Consequence: Since raw files cannot have a backing file, gluster could not be used as the destination for an external snapshot; the workaround of a FUSE mount results in slower performance

Fix: libvirt added code to link with libgfapi and enhanced XML to allow the use of qcow2 images on gluster as a snapshot destination

Result: it is no longer necessary to use a FUSE mount, and libvirt can now take an external snapshot with a gluster destination

Previously, libvirt treated all storage with network addresses (including images accessed via gluster) as RAW images. Since RAW files cannot have a backing file, gluster could not be used as the destination for an external snapshot. The workaround was to use a FUSE mount, which resulted in slower performance.

New code has been added to link libvirt with libgfapi, and enhanced XML now allows the use of QCOW2 images on gluster as a snapshot destination. It is no longer necessary to use a FUSE mount, and libvirt can now take an external snapshot with a gluster destination.
