Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04.1 tls trusty

Using library: libvirt 1.2.2
Using API: QEMU 1.2.2
Running hypervisor: QEMU 2.0.0


When you create a snapshot through "virsh snapshot-create-as" when a virtual 
machine is on,
then the source tag in the xml is changed.

But when you reboot the HOST, then the changes in the source tag are
discared (the old/previous source path is used again).

I'v reproduced this bug on a clean Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty with fully updated 
packages.
Could not reproduce this on a 12.04 tls, so only 14.04 is affected (with 
libvirt version 1.2.2)

Reproduce:

- Create VM  => vm.qcow2
- Create snashot (through snasphot-create-as) => snapshot.qcow2
- reboot the host
- now the old source path is used again  => vm.qcow2

** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
