[SOLVED] The current guest configuration does not support taking new snapshots

[LnxBil]

This information can be found in the storage types documentation and appears to be incorrect: "2: On file based storages, snapshots are possible with the qcow2 format."

At least it didn't work for me.

The statement is correct, yet I cannot say what prevented you from using it. Maybe some non-snapshottable storage like the efi partition?

Works for me.

I second that.

Yes, EFI disks are used. Are they just on file based storage not snapshotable? Because with LVM-Thin I can now create snapshots with these EFI disks.

Hi,
all qcow2 files are snapshottable and EFI disks can be qcow2 files. Maybe you also have a TPM state, which can only be raw currently?
