[Users] user can not create a snapshot

[Ofri Masad]

Hi Andrej,

Actually, we haven't been able to reproduce this bug.
Could you please give me some details:
 - what version are you using?
 - do you create a thin provision disk from template or a clone?
 - do you have only one disk on the template or many?
 - when creating a vm from template, do you assign same quota to the VM and the disks or a different one? 

Thanks,
Ofri
