Hi all,
What is the procedure to save a running VM as an image if it's running
with QCOW2?

As per the documentation, I've used shutdown after issuing save as, but
the image gets in a LOCKED stated and do not progress.
If the VM gets deleted, the image changes to READY but I think it's just
a link to the old image used by the VM. Trying to start a new template
using this new image throws an error.

Tried with SHUTDOWN and STOP without luck.

I guess I'm missing something, does anyone how to do it?

Thanks in advance
