glusterfs-3.5.2-1.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.2-6.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. prepare a domain with gluster network disk
# virsh dumpxml virt-tests-vm1
...
    <disk type='network' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
      <source protocol='gluster' name='gluster-vol1/rhel7.img'>
        <host name='xx.xx.xx.xx'/>
      </source>
      <backingStore/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
      <alias name='virtio-disk0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>
...

# virsh list
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 4     virt-tests-vm1                 running

2. prepare a fault snapshot xml
# cat /tmp/gluster_snap.xml 
<domainsnapshot>
<name>snapshot_test</name>
<description>Snapshot Test</description>
<disks>
<disk name='vda' snapshot='external' type='network'>
<source protocol='gluster' name='gluster-vol1/gluster.qcow2.snap'/>
</disk>
</disks>
</domainsnapshot>

Note:
The <source> element closed without <host/> given

3. do external disk snapshot with the xml
# virsh snapshot-create virt-tests-vm1 /tmp/gluster_snap.xml --disk-only

Comment 6 Shanzhi Yu 2014-11-26 06:31:57 UTC
Verify this bug with libvirt-1.2.8-9.el7.x86_64, step as comment 0. libvirtd will not crash again and an error show when try to start guest

# virsh snapshot-create rh7 snap.xml  --disk-only
error: internal error: Expected exactly 1 host for the gluster volume

So, change this bug to verify status
