Hi,
if i am doing the following:

xm create myvm
xm save myvm state.dat
xm create myvm
(now logging on an do some modifikations)
xm destroy myvm
xm restore state.dat

Will that leave the filesystem consistent? Do i have a filesystem that is the 
same like the one at the point of the saving?
Is there a way to take a snapshot of a virtual machine for later staterestoring 
instead of shuting the machine down and copying its imagefile?

Thanks,
Julian
