With virsh managedsave/start, you are guaranteed guest downtime of several seconds at a minimum, and you have to do the disk management yourself; but with external snapshots, you can take a consistent picture of guest state at a point in time with sub-second downtime (the same way live migration between hosts has sub-second downtime). -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
