I'm using RBD (their volume interface) and not a file system. However, it appears that this IS working -- I restarted the server rather than just the services and now I can correctly snapshot a running instance.
This is all on a 13.10 base system, so I must have forgotten to restart some service. Is this patch being pushed into the 13.10 releases? If not, I'll manually update the other servers in my (small) cluster. Btw, I looked through the AUDIT log for things that were DENIED and it looks like qemu-ifdown is not in the libvirt-qemu file -- is this something that should be added?
