Could you explain that in some more detail? In my understanding a snapshot is just a point in time where changes to the virtual disk are written to a new file. So I guess there is still a point for using snapshots.Ĭhristian, you mentioned that snapshots don't work with EFI based BIOS. I guess I could not solve this easily by creating a new VM each time an update needs to be applied because I would have to migrate the data as well each time. If something goes wrong I jump back to the snapshot and are up and running again.


Today I'd like to take a snapshot from a production VM each time before I apply updates/patches to it. For testing purposes I think I could go the same way as Siem and just create new VMs from templates.
