VMs Snapshots

[OneSoul]

Hi all!

I use PVE as my personal virtualization platform and I'm very satisfied.
Now, I would try to take snapshots of a VM... how ca I do this? It's a KVM full virtualized machine and I have already tried with "savevm" in the monitor tab, but it give me back some like "ERROR: monitor timeout"

How ca I fix thise issue?

In future a snapshot management will be integrated in the WEB-GUI?

Thanks!

KVM snapshots only works with qcow2 images, which is a serious limitation. So we do not plan to add anything to the web-gui currently - thats a post 2.0 task.

Thank for help!

I have tried to take a snapshot again with savevm/loadvm directly in the monitor and it seems work fine

I'm very confident in the follow Proxmox improovement, it's a very interesting product - I enjoy it often with a lot of satisfaction.

bye!
