[Users] oVirt live snapshot problem

30 May 2012

      Hi there,

When trying to create a snapshot of a running guest I get the
following error message in the oVirt web console.
Can anyone assist with further troubleshooting? Snapshots of guests
that are powered down work fine.

Failed to complete Snapshot ....creation for VM ...
