I want to expand the disk capacity of the win7 virtual machine,but it prompts me that there are snapshots and cannot be expanded,but the snapshots cannot be deleted.
[root@jwf home]# qemu-img resize win7.qcow2 +30G
qemu-img: Can't resize an image which has snapshots
qemu-img: This image does not support resize
[root@jwf home]#
Use the qemu-img command to view the snapshot information.
[root@jwf home]# qemu-img info win7.qcow2
image: win7.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 40G (42949672960 bytes)
disk size: 64G
cluster_size: 65536
Snapshot list:
ID TAG VM SIZE DATE VM CLOCK
1 clean 0 2019-10-18 14:41:10 00:00:00.000
Format specific information:
compat: 1.1
lazy refcounts: true
But I can't see the snapshot information using the virsh command.
[root@jwf home]# virsh snapshot-list win7
Name Creation Time State
------------------------------------------------------------
[root@jwf home]#
Unable to delete snapshot
[root@jwf home]# virsh snapshot-delete --domain win7 --snapshotname clean
error: Domain snapshot not found: no domain snapshot with matching name 'clean'
error: Domain snapshot not found: no domain snapshot with matching name 'clean'
[root@jwf home]# virsh snapshot-delete --domain win7 --snapshotname 1
error: Domain snapshot not found: no domain snapshot with matching name '1'
error: Domain snapshot not found: no domain snapshot with matching name '1'
No snapshot information is displayed in virt-manager.enter image description here
This virtual machine is imported by me,there is no snapshot configuration file
[root@jwf home]#
[root@jwf home]# ls /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/snapshot/win7/
[root@jwf home]#
Sometimes virsh and qemu see different things. This is occasionally because one of them is blind, and less frequently because one of them is hallucinating. In this case I believe virsh is blind. Try this:
qemu-img info disk_image
qemu-img snapshot -d snapshot_id disk_image
qemu-img info disk_image
