Application-Aware|freeze|and|thaw|on Microsoft Windows with VSS Support on*qemu-ga-win*
VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service) is a Microsoft Windows API that allows, among other things, the notification of applications for proper, consistent freeze and thaw operations. With this feature, snapshots taken while the virtual machine is running are consistent through the whole stack (from the block layer to the guest applications) and can be used for backup purposes. For more information, see theVirtualization Administration Guide <https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Virtualization_Administration_Guide/sub-sect-qemu-ga-freeze-thaw.html>
Is there any issue with using these drivers with OVIRT? (since ovirt is upstream of RHEV, it should work, right?) I know, the answer will be no...
shouldn't be any issue using these (other than potential bugs of course)
