I updated to 8.1.x. I am trying to take a snapshot of this VM that runs Ubuntu Server but i get: "The current guest configuration does not support taking new snapshots"

What type of storage is your storage "storage"? Maybe that storage type just isn't supporting snapshots like an LVM or directory/smb/nfs without qcow?

What would have caused that to change? I've always been able to do that? Can I convert without losing data?
 
An LVM storage was never supporting snapshots. Maybe you previously used LVM-Thin which supports snapshots?
