Hello,

I'm trying to do this :
- Having KVM VM running on iSCSI SAN (OpenFiler).
- Backup (snapshot) on local drive.

If the SAN crash and there's notting to do (rapidely), I wish to restore the backup from local drive to a new VMID, but using local storage instant of SAN.

Is this possible ?

restore it with qmrestore, using the --storage flag pointing to local storage.

see 'man qmrestore'
