image_raw_device

Description

Flags whether the backing image for a given drive is a block device instead of a regular file.

By default we assume all images are backed by files:

image_raw_device = no

But suppose you define a new variant, for another guest, that will have a disk backed by a block device (say, an LVM volume):

CustomGuestLinux:
    image_name = /dev/vg/linux_guest
    image_raw_device = yes
