When to use qemu-img in shared mode?

If specified, qemu-img will open the image in shared mode, allowing other QEMU processes to open it in write mode.

Note that this could produce inconsistent results because of concurrent metadata changes, etc.

Where are disk image snapshots stored in QEMU?

The disk image snapshots are stored in every disk image. The size of a snapshot in a disk image is difficult to evaluate and is not shown by info snapshots because the associated disk sectors are shared among all the snapshots to save disk space (otherwise each snapshot would need a full copy of all the disk images).

How does qemu-img REBASE keep the guest visible?

The new backing file may differ from the old one and qemu-img rebase will take care of keeping the guest-visible content of filename unchanged. In order to achieve this, any clusters that differ between backing_file and the old backing file of filename are merged into filename before actually changing the backing file.

How to change the size of the image in QEMU?

If the option backing_file is specified, then the image will record only the differences from backing_file. No size needs to be specified in this case. backing_file will never be modified unless you use the “commit” monitor command (or qemu-img commit).
