Hi i'm using OpenNebula 1.4 with libvirtd 0.7.5. I'm using an ubuntu-10.4-desktop installation for my VMs and i'm trying to use qcow2 file system for the images. I said try because when i submit the template i get fail status and error message. I installed ubuntu on a 4GB raw image and, to save disk space, i converted it in qcow2 with the option "backing_file" to keep it safe (qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=ubuntu.img ubuntu.qcow). When i use the raw image it will works fine, but if i use the qcow2 image i get the error listed <span class="number"></span><span class="definition">below.I noticed that changing in the deploying file the disk path to the qcow2 image and submitting the Vm with "</span>virsh --connect qemu:///system create /var/lib/one//25/deployment.0" command it works. So, what's the problem?<br>
