Description

Basically everything should be there (we deploy qemu-ga which provides vss support and live snapshot automatically tries to quiesce whenever possible). Can be tested using vshadow tool part of the following SDK: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23490 See usage: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb530725%28v=vs.85%29.aspx I'm using RHEV3.3 (IS25) and I've installed its rhev-guest-tools on a windows VM (RHEV-toolsSetup_3.3_6.iso on windows server 2008). The rhev-guest-tools ISO contains qemu-guest-agent but VSS for windows is not supported. This bug can't be added to the 3.3.2 errata due to a missing acks. - Kiril Sean, please check my comment #15 vshadow creation succeeded:
Reproduction steps:
1. installed a windows VM with 2 disks and rhevm-guest-tools with the mentioned qemu-guest-agent version which support vss for windows.
2. installed Volume Shadow Copy Service SDK 7.2 on the guest.
3. created vshadow using VSS SDK
