qemu-img commit virtioa.qcow2
Win7
cd /opt/unetlab/addons/win-7test
and perform the sparsify command:
virt-sparsify --compress virtioa.qcow2 compressedvirtioa.qcow2
This will take some time and another compressed image will be created in the same image directory (win-7test) now you can rename your original virtioa.qcow2 file to orig.qcow2
mv virtioa.qcow2 orig.qcow2
Rename the compressed image name to virtioa.qcow2:
mv compressedvirtioa.qcow2 virtioa.qcow2
now you can test your new compressed image on a lab, just wipe the node and start it. If the compressed node works fine, you can delete your original source image:
