Very interesting. We had gone through the ov7 man pages, particularly the snapshotting pages, and never saw the --skip-suspend option. We're using
prlctl snapshot uuid
to generate our snapshots as per the manual and there are really no options there.

That said, I just tried this and prlctl won't take the --skip-suspend option, but if I run a vzctl snapshot create with that flag it does work, and makes a snapshot super quickly.

I think we'll need to experiment with vzctl snapshot create vs prlctl snapshot create, with this flag, and see if there are any differences in disk usage / bloat.

Thanks for the tip, this is one thing I haven't tried.
