Is there even a use case for this? While an OS is running, just silently replacing the disk contents isn't going to work. And if you're rebooting anyway, you can as well load the snapshot offline. > Using "loadvm <snapshot-id>" in the qemu monitor does not have the > desired effect.

In fact, that commit only lets loadvm fail earlier. Before, loadvm would have loaded all disk snapshots and then returned -EINVAL because there was no VM state, now it fails immediately (the VM is stopped in both cases because of the failure). I think the correct fix is to add an error message. Kevin
