Thanks Steve.

from the logs I can see that the create snapshot succeeds and that the vm is resumed.
the vm moves to pause as part of libvirt flows:

2014-02-02 14:41:20.872+0000: 5843: debug : qemuProcessHandleStop:728 : Transitioned guest snapshot-test to paused state
2014-02-02 14:41:30.031+0000: 5843: debug : qemuProcessHandleResume:776 : Transitioned guest snapshot-test out of paused into resumed state

There are bugs here but I am not sure yet if this is libvirt regression or engine.

I'm adding Elad and Maor since in engine logs I can't see anything calling for live snapshot (only for snapshot) - Maor, shouldn't live snapshot command be logged somewhere in the logs?
Is it possible that engine is calling to create snapshot and not create live snapshot which is why the vm pauses?

Elad, if engine is not logging live snapshot anywhere I would open a bug for engine (to print that in the logs).
Also, there is a bug in vdsm log for sdc where the below is logged as ERROR and not INFO:

Thread-23::ERROR::2014-02-02 09:51:19,497::sdc::137::Storage.StorageDomainCache::(_findDomain) looking for unfetched domain a52938f7-2cf4-4771-acb2-0c78d14999e5
Thread-23::ERROR::2014-02-02 09:51:19,497::sdc::154::Storage.StorageDomainCache::(_findUnfetchedDomain) looking for domain a52938f7-2cf4-4771-acb2-0c78d14999e5

If the engine was sending live snapshot or if there is no difference in the two commands in engine side than I would open a bug for libvirt for pausing the vm during live snapshot.

                I have two CentOS 6.5 Ovirt hosts (ovirt001, ovirt002)

                I've installed the applicable qemu-kvm-rhev packages
        from this
                site: http://www.dreyou.org/ovirt/vdsm32/Packages/ on
        ovirt002.

                On ovirt001 if I take a live snapshot:

                Snapshot 'test qemu-kvm' creation for VM
        'snapshot-test' was
                initiated by admin@internal.
                The VM is paused
                Failed to create live snapshot 'test qemu-kvm' for VM
                'snapshot-test'. VM restart is recommended.
                Failed to complete snapshot 'test qemu-kvm' creation
        for VM
                'snapshot-test'.
                The VM is then started, and the status for the snapshot
                changes to OK.

                On ovirt002 (with the packages from dreyou) I don't
        get any
                messages about a snapshot failing, but my VM is still
        paused
                to complete the snapshot. Is there something else
        other than
                the qemu-kvm-rhev packages that would enable this
        functionality?

                I've looked for some information on when the packages
        would be
                built as required in the CentOS repos, but I don't see
                anything definitive.

        http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-December/019126.html
                Looks like one of the maintainers is waiting for
        someone to
                tell him what flags need to be set.

                Also, another thread here:
        http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.ovirt.arch/1618
                same maintainer, mentioning that he hasn't seen
        anything in
                the bug tracker.

                There is a bug here:
        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1009100 that seems
                to have ended in finding a way for qemu to expose
        whether it
                supports live snapshots, rather than figuring out how
        to get
                the CentOS team the info they need to build the
        packages with
                the proper flags set.

                I have bcc'd both dreyou (packaged the qemu-kvm-rhev
        packages
                listed above) and Russ (CentOS maintainer mentioned in the
                other threads) if they wish to chime in and perhaps
                collaborate on which flags, if any, should be set for the
                qemu-kvm builds so we can get a CentOS bug report
        going and
                hammer this out.

                Thanks everyone.

                **crosses fingers and hopes for live snapshots soon**

                        How would you developers, speaking for the
                oVirt-community,
                        propose to
                        solve this for CentOS _now_ ?

                        I would imagine that the easiest way is that
        you build and
                        host this one
                        package(qemu-kvm-rhev), since you´ve basically
        already
                have
                        the source
                        and recipe (since you´re already providing it
        for RHEV
                        anyway). Then,
                        once that´s in place, it´s more a question of
        where to
                host the
                        packages, in what repository. Be it your own,
        or some
                other
                        repo set up
                        for the SIG.

                        This is my view, how I as a user view this issue.



                    I think this is a pretty valid view.

                    What would it take to get the correct qemu package
        hosted
                in the
                    ovirt repo?
