if it’s not successful there should be an event log message about that. And prior to taking the snapshot a warning in red at the bottom of the dialog (that check happens when you open the dialog, so it may not be 100% reliable)

if you want to doublecheck then this is noticable in vdsm.log. First we try to take the snapshot with fsfreeze, and only when it fails we take it again without it.

It’s a matter of Linux and Windows implementation, they both have an API supporting that at kernel level. I’m not aware of filesystem limitations.
