Hi All,

 

QCOW2 feature included in Qemu-2.1.2 version works fine in Fedora, but there is issue in CentOS 6.5/7.

 

We can create a qcow2 img file using qemu-img in CentOS

 

>  qemu-img create -f qcow2 test.qcow2 10G

 

Then using qemu-system-x86_64 or virt-manager to install one VM to this file test.qcow2 created above, the disk size is not 10G but
only basic about 200K. 

 

Are there similar issues in CentOS? Or maybe something I missed. Could you give help on it? Thanks!

 

 

 

Best Regards

Halsey Pian

Your VMs are configured to have "raw" disk images rather than "qcow2".
