Nux! Thanks for this link. I found this earlier through the list also.
I initially discounted it as it seemed to be talking about VM snapshots
on CentOS 6.5 and I'm having trouble with Volume snapshots on COS 6.4.

However, I checked what version of RPM I had installed:

Installed on my COS 6.4 box:
- qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.6.x86_64

Your linked page shows this version:
- qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6_4_4.1.x86_64.rpm

Hmmm. Different. My RPM looks like a newer version. I had a look at yum
info qemu-img and my package comes from 6.4 Updates. Anyway - decided to
uninstall my package and install the 355 version that you were using.
After installing I rebooted. I really didn't expect anything to change
but Volume Snapshots now work! YEAH!

Snapshot also goes all the way to S3 so that part is working fine too.

Happy days and thanks for your help!

Tom.
