1.使用virt-manager创建的虚拟机硬盘文件和xml文件的默认位置
/var/lib/libvirt/images #qcow2硬盘文件
/etc/libvirt/qemu #xml配置文件
2.使用后端盘centos7-1.qcow2创建centos7-2.qcow2
# qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b /var/lib/libvirt/images/centos7-1.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/centos7-2.qcow2
3.将centos7-1.xml文件复制一份并修改,删除所有带有address、mac、uuid标签的行
# cp /etc/libvirt/qemu/centos7-1.xml /etc/libvirt/qemu/centos7-2.xml
# vi /etc/libvirt/qemu/centos7-2.xml

4.用xml文件定义新的虚拟机并开始运行
# virsh define /etc/libvirt/qemu/centos7-2.xml
# virsh start centos7-2
5.一个使用centos7-1的后端盘创建的虚拟机centos7-2就完成了
