  • Do not snapshot a stopped VM, rather set the vm-param blocked_operations:start during vm-export instead, which prevents accidental start of the VM

This may also help to avoid unwanted space drain on the SR caused by 'base copy' VDI-s that may be created during vm-snapshot, but later they are not always removed / coalesced (happened on XE 5.5 to me)
