Accessing the contents of a savevm snapshot

[Jakob Bohm]

For purposes of doing minimum-interruption backups of virtual machines, 
I am looking for ways to access the contents of copying/reading a savevm 
snapshot while the VM continues running past the time of the snapshot.  
This will later be followed by a delvm HMP command to discard the 
temporary snapshot and resume non-qow use of the disk image file.

However looking through the (scattered) qemu documentation, I see no 
commands to access the snapshot while the VM continues to run. Neither 
the disk contents snapshotted by the savevm command, nor the VM state 
also saved by the savevm command.

What am I missing?


Enjoy

Jakob
