I have a CT running with layout=ploop

I need to make a copy of it, to test new software versions before switching.
I made a snapshot (vzctl snapshot CTID)... what's next ?

How can I use this ploop snapshot in another CT ? using snapshot-switch ? I could not find documentation about it in the wiki or on the forum Sad

I've always had luck with just shutting down the CT and copying the whole /private/CTID folder, renaming it the right ID, making the /public/ctid folder, and updating the IP/hostname in the .conf file that I copied from the original.
