Hi All,

The feature's wiki page has been massively updated
(http://www.ovirt.org/Features/RAM_Snapshots)

Major changes:

1. Withdraw the option of using the saved memory from snapshot when creating
a VM from snapshot as the initial memory state of the VM, as it turned out that
the VM configuration is stored inside the memory file.

2. Simplified the API between the engine and VDSM: using comma-separated string
to represent the memory volume (which can be empty) instead of map with 'mode'
and pool-domain-image-volume quartet values.

Again, All feedback is welcome!

Regards,
Arik
