[jira] [Commented] (CLOUDSTACK-5268) [Automation] There is no option to create snapshot from volume of running vm

["Min Chen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-5268?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13839640#comment-13839640 ] 

Min Chen commented on CLOUDSTACK-5268:
--------------------------------------

Based on Jessica, here is the UI logic for determining whether to display snapshot option or not for KVM:
1. If VM is not running, then always shows "snapshot" option.
2. If VM is running, it will only show "snapshot" option when the global setting "kvm.snapshot.enabled" is set to "true".
Please try this with latest code since Jessica made a fix on this on 11/26 with commit 06929343447da69b54041e506ee0f6d4b735c3bb. Otherwise, re-open this as an UI bug since this is pure UI logic.
