We have a vmid 200, linked clone of vmid 100 with: 

base-100-disk-1.raw ---> vm-200-disk-1.qcow2 

then we want to full clone the vm 200. 

I don't known if 

"qemu-img convert vm-200-disk-1.qcow2", will work out of the box or if we need to specify the base-xxx somewhere. 

I never test it, maybe it work, maybe not... 

man say: 
"convert [-c] [-p] [-f fmt] [-t cache] [-O output_fmt] [-o options] [-s snapshot_name] [-S sparse_size] filename [filename2 [...]] output_filename" 

seem that we can pass multiple filenames

Sorry, I did not get that. Please can you explain more elaborate?
