I think the only possible explanation to having a VM with no snapshots
besides the ACTIVE one and memory attached to the ACTIVE snapshot is that
the VM is suspended. In that case, and if the error you get is related to
the memory (dump/metadta) disks, shutting down the VM in the source (4.1)
env first can solve this
