Re: [libvirt-users] Backup a VM (using live external snapshot and blockcommit)

But if the guest is
malicious, it can pretend to be a guest agent, but intentionally
refuse to reply to the --quiesce request, and leave libvirt hung
waiting for a reply. So it boils down to whether you trust your
guests to be reasonable with their guest agent connection (fine if it
is your own guests, not so much if you are hosting a cloud for other
people's guests).
Of course. I didn't think of this use case.

Yep, sounds like a bug in the wiki, so I fixed it.
I thought so but didn't dare to be too affirmative about it.
Glad it is fixed. Hopefully, it will save someone some time and
trouble. Let this be my micro-contribution...
Thanks again.
