Hello, I have a CentOS 7 VM. I make a snaphost at 16:40 with memory included. Then at 17:05 shutdown VM and preview of the snapshot. VM starts ok and initialy is at 16:40 (no ntp at the moment and no ovrti-guest=-agent inside VM, only spice-vdagent and qemu-guest-agent) When I try to open a spice console (that before preview worked ok) I get an error window Error while executing action SetVmTicket: Unexpected exception and in webadmin gui: user admin failed to initiate a console session for VM c7 in vdsm.log I get the error below. I think it could depend on time set at VM level...

Note that I'm using qemu from virt-preview qemu-2.1.2-6.fc20.x86_64 but when I was using the Active VM before the preview spice console worked ok... Is this expected to not being able to open spice console in a snapshot preview? Gianluca
