Hi,

About 6 months ago I experienced an i/o error when trying to manage a
file after having rolled back the snapshot in a Vmware environment. I
had never seen such a problem before and I did not have the time for
further research but told the produktion people about the problem. The
reason of the error was never solved. But please pay attention when
testing the snapshot procedure in opennebula. I intend to do a lot of
test when included in
a release.

Regards

Poul
