oVirt gerrit 46420 0 master MERGED frontend: add warning when taking a snapshot with memory Never

Description Gilad Chaplik 2014-01-23 10:31:31 UTC 
While taking memory snapshot vm got paused, I guess that we should alert the user, that this operation will pause the VM for the duration of the snapshot.

for how long?

it's supposed to be eliminated by using VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_LIVE

if I had OS installed about a minute.

my vnc got stuck, so I got pretty scared for a minute, wasn't aware of it :) I'd just add a tooltip/Note that prompt, to the create snapshot dialog.

Setting target release to current version for consideration and review. please
do not push non-RFE bugs to an undefined target release to make sure bugs are
reviewed for relevancy, fix, closure, etc.

This is an automated message.
Re-targeting all non-blocker bugs still open on 3.4.0 to 3.4.1.
Comment 5 Michal Skrivanek 2014-08-08 10:42:13 UTC 
migration-like live snapshot is still in plan, not in 3.5 though

I think that even when we'll support VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_LIVE, we can offer the user to do it as it is now because maybe the user is willing to let us pause his VM in order to make the memory dump operation quicker (and 100% convergent).

In this case, the user can select whether or not to save the memory and if the save memory is selected, to have another option of 'live' or not with question mark that explain the trade-off between 'live' or not 'live'.

Please check if this bug is still relevant in oVirt 3.5.4.
If it's not relevant anymore, please close it (you may use EOL or CURRENT RELEASE resolution)
If it's an RFE please update the version to 4.0 if still relevant.

Comment 12 Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine 2015-10-19 11:02:04 UTC 
Target release should be placed once a package build is known to fix a issue. Since this bug is not modified, the target version has been reset. Please use target milestone to plan a fix for a oVirt release.
