Very good point Gialuca, you are right, the 'persist_memorystate' flag is 'true' by default, and that makes the pause longer. Would you be so kind to add it to the 'vm_backup.py' example that is part of version 4 of the SDK?

(Note that that Gibhub is just a mirror, the change needs to be submited using gerrit.ovirt.org).
I already verified (on a 4.1 infra) that changing vm_backup.py downloaded yesterday from master this way (apart connection paramters): $ diff vm_backup.py vm_backup.py.orig 150d149 < persist_memorystate=False, I get the backup result and snapshot is correctly without memory saved (and no pause at VM side) In engine events I get: Mar 9, 2017 10:50:39 AM Snapshot 'Oracle7-backup-c6bf637e-cdeb-4923-a39f-55a14d7bad7b' deletion for VM 'Oracle7' has been completed.

I have almost no experience in gerrit/github, unfortunately... only a beginner experience in svn ... ;-) If you give me some pointers I can try to apply what you asked... Gianluca
