O.o Should I be concerned that this is surprising?
I understand that COW file-systems can do snapshots at "instantaneous" points in time and KVM snapshots ram state as well, but I still worry that a database could be backed up at just the wrong time and be in an inconsistent state at restore. I'd rather do less frequent backups of a stopped VM and be more confident it will restore and boot correctly. Maybe I'm a curmudgeon?
