Andy Kurth created VCL-911:
------------------------------

             Summary: Ensure qcow2 images are saved in backwards compatible format
                 Key: VCL-911
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-911
             Project: VCL
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: vcld (backend)
            Reporter: Andy Kurth
             Fix For: 2.5


Newer versions of QEMU create qcow2 images which are not backwards compatible by default.  This is nicely described [here|http://blog.wikichoon.com/2014/12/virt-manager-10-creates-qcow2-images.html].

The code should be updated to use the *-o compat=0.10* argument when calling qemu-img.
