GitHub user chunkyen created a discussion: UEFI instance snapshot error

Hi, when taking a snapshot of an UEFI VM, I get "Creating VM snapshot: xxx 
failed due to Create VM snapshot failed due to org.libvirt.LibvirtException: 
Operation not supported: internal snapshots of a VM with pflash based firmware 
are not supported"
Understand this is a limitation of libvirt that it cannot snapshot the pflash 
based firmware/NVRAM while the instance is running. I can only take snapshot if 
I power off the instance.
But I also read that recent version of libvirt does support live instance 
snapshot if it is using qcow2 format firmware. Is there something I can 
configure in CloudStack to change this so that live snapshot of UEFI instance 
work?
Thanks
