Snapshot button disabled

Not sure why, I though it was the type of volume I've created.. but one of my new VMs is unable to snapshot.

Here are my versions. It worked ok before the recent upgrade.

Please can you post the VM config?

Hi,
you should update (and boot) the kernel!
Has nothing to do with snapshot, but this kernel has an bug that can kill processes during backups.

I *think* I've worked out what is going on...

I had initialized the RAID array as raw, but to get the container to accept snapshots it has to be mounted as a directory.

Clearly, I'm struggling here but I got it working.
