Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply. Regarding the live snapshot I'm using VDSM 4.1, but
I'm getting an error and looks like a qemu version problem. Could it be ?

The best way to make a VM backup is to make an export right ?

Version     : 4.10.0
Release     : 0.42.13.el6
Size        : 2.3 M
Repo        : installed
>From repo   : vdsm31-dre
Summary     : Virtual Desktop Server Manager

Name        : qemu-kvm
Arch        : x86_64
Epoch       : 2
Version     : 0.12.1.2
Release     : 2.295.el6_3.2

Regards.
