On backup creation, when using snapshot mode, the docs say:
If the guest agent is enabled (agent: 1) and running, it calls guest-fsfreeze-freeze and guest-fsfreeze-thaw to improve consistency.
does this also apply when doing a normal snapshot of a vm or only on backup?
So are guest-fsfreeze-freeze and guest-fsfreeze-thaw also triggerd on regular snapshot creation (via web-ui)?
