+ <h1>Snapshot XML format</h1>

+
+ <h2><a name="SnapshotAttributes">Snapshot XML</a></h2>
+
+ <p>
+ Attributes of libvirt snapshots are stored as child elements of
+ the <code>domainsnapshot</code> element. At snapshot creation
+ time, only the <code>name</code> and <code>description</code>
+ elements are settable; the rest of the fields are informational
+ (and readonly) and will be filled in by libvirt when the
+ snapshot is created.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The top-level <code>domainsnapshot</code> element may contain
+ the following elements:
+ </p>
+ <dl>
+ <dt><code>name</code></dt>
+ <dd>The name for this snapshot. If the name is specified when
+ initially creating the snapshot, then the snapshot will have
+ that particular name. If the name is omitted when initially
+ creating the snapshot, then libvirt will make up a name for the snapshot.
+ </dd>
+ <dt><code>description</code></dt>
+ <dd>A human-readable description of the snapshot. If the
+ description is omitted when initially creating the snapshot,
+ then this field will be empty.
+ </dd>
+ <dt><code>creationTime</code></dt>
+ <dd>The time this snapshot was created. The time is specified
+ in seconds since the Epoch (i.e. Unix time). Readonly.
+ </dd>
+ <dt><code>state</code></dt>
+ <dd>The state of the domain at the time this snapshot was
+ taken. When the domain is reverted to this snapshot, the domain's state
+ will be set to whatever is in this field. Readonly.
+ </dd>
+ <dt><code>parent</code></dt>
+ <dd>The parent of this snapshot. This element contains exactly
+ one child element, name. This specifies the name of the parent
+ snapshot of this snapshot, and is used to represent trees of
+ snapshots. Readonly.
+ </dd>
+ <dt><code>domain</code></dt>
+ <dd>The domain that this snapshot was taken against. This
+ element contains exactly one child element, uuid. This
+ specifies the uuid of the domain that this snapshot was taken
+ against. Readonly.
+ </dd>
+ </dl>
