Hi

I'm a KVM newbie; I've been using the new snapshots tool with libvirt0 0.8.0

But I found that I couldn't make good snapshots whilst the domain was 
running. When I tried, data was being created as the pool was getting 
bigger, but after 15 mins, I got an error

'error : server closed connection'

Doing a snapshot with snapshot-create with same domain not running and 
snapshot was created successfully in only 30 seconds.

As I would like to do live snapshots, am I doing something wrong? I'm 
using qcow2 format storage.

Kind regards

Julian Robbins
