VM snapshots on KVM

Hi,

It looks like VM snapshotting is supported on KVM [0] and yet the
test_vm_snapshots has never passed for the KVM environment [1][2][3].
It works for XCP and Xen however.

Is there something special that needs to happen for guests on KVM to
perform the VM snapshot?

Sorry if this was already mentioned before. Is the libvirt-java
release for this fix not out yet? Can you add this note to the design
doc for now mentioning the version of libvirt-java etc?

We can, but I'll keep it for when libvirt-java is released. I don't
mind the tests failing for now.
