32``commit``
33  Commit changes to the disk images (if -snapshot is used) or backing files.
34  If the backing file is smaller than the snapshot, then the backing file
35  will be resized to be the same size as the snapshot.  If the snapshot is
36  smaller than the backing file, the backing file will not be truncated.
37  If you want the backing file to match the size of the smaller snapshot,
38  you can safely truncate it yourself once the commit operation successfully
39  completes.

68  and via the QMP monitor during the preconfig state. The command is only
69  available during the preconfig state (i.e. when the --preconfig command
70  line option was in use).

84  Resize a block image while a guest is running.  Usually requires guest
85  action to see the updated size.  Resize to a lower size is supported,
86  but should be used with extreme caution.  Note that this command only
87  resizes image files, it can not resize block devices like LVM volumes.

193``drive_del`` *device*
194  Remove host block device.  The result is that guest generated IO is no longer
195  submitted against the host device underlying the disk.  Once a drive has
196  been deleted, the QEMU Block layer returns -EIO which results in IO
197  errors in the guest for applications that are reading/writing to the device.
198  These errors are always reported to the guest, regardless of the drive's error
199  actions (drive options rerror, werror).

211``change`` *device* *setting*

215    Change the medium for a removable disk device to point to *filename*. eg::

218
219    *format* is optional.

221    *read-only-mode* may be used to change the read-only status of the device.
222    It accepts the following values:
223
224    retain
225      Retains the current status; this is the default.
226
227    read-only
228      Makes the device read-only.
229
230    read-write
231      Makes the device writable.
232
233  ``change vnc`` *display*,\ *options*
234    Change the configuration of the VNC server. The valid syntax for *display*
235    and *options* are described at :ref:`sec_005finvocation`. eg::
236
237      (qemu) change vnc localhost:1
238
239  ``change vnc password`` [*password*]
240
241    Change the password associated with the VNC server. If the new password
242    is not supplied, the monitor will prompt for it to be entered. VNC
243    passwords are only significant up to 8 letters. eg::
244
245      (qemu) change vnc password

465  *fmt* is a format which tells the command how to format the
466  data. Its syntax is: ``/{count}{format}{size}``
467
468  *count*
469    is the number of items to be dumped.
470  *format*
471    can be x (hex), d (signed decimal), u (unsigned decimal), o (octal),
472    c (char) or i (asm instruction).
473  *size*
474    can be b (8 bits), h (16 bits), w (32 bits) or g (64 bits). On x86,
475    ``h`` or ``w`` can be specified with the ``i`` format to
476    respectively select 16 or 32 bit code instruction size.
