The snapshot behavior changed so that when snapshot is taken the VM is not locked, but only the specific snapshot gets locked (this is needed to allow live snapshots). The problem is that API doesn't expose the snapshot status so there is no way to query on the status of the snapshot. This will be fixed in bug 801289. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 801289 ***
