Worse than not supported - not a solution. First and very true comment posted to that article:
"Snapshots are not a replacement for Backups" I think the winning answer in this sub-thread is wbadmin. I'm running a wbadmin backup now on the host of two running VM's. Before this I took the VM's down and copied the VHD's. wbadmin takes care of everything including a bare metal restore to dissimilar hardware, big win with that.
