Learning new things every day... Such as KVM when managed via virsh (libvirt?) cannot delete or revert snapshots?
virsh snapshot-delete MyVMName --snapshotname mysnapshot error: Failed to delete snapshot mysnapshot error: unsupported configuration: deletion of 1 external disk snapshots not supported yet.Am I missing a step or something? Fortunately, it's not at a critical time for me... but it is nice to know.
RHEL is purposefully keeping QEMU behind in releases to push RHEV. To do snapshotting with libvirt you need QEMU 2 or higher. You need to install the qemu-kvm-ev (I think) package and you can get it with centos-release-qemu-ev (again I think). Anyway, you need a higher version of QEMU.
Come to find out this is only an issue with external disk snapshots. Snapshots that are taken as part of the main disk image do not have this problem. Still seems like an issue to me.
I reckon I will have to go back and give XenServer another go.

Seriously busy posting day around here. Nice to see everyone so active.

Right internal are fine. If you update the qemu you will be able to do live external snapshots

A SysAdmin should not be allow to have the job if they don't have internet at home so that they can work on their own system remotely. I mean really?? Who works in IT, is a SysAdmin and doesn't work from home on their own servers.

Writing a new script to automate setup of FreePBX.
Started using brackets http://brackets.io as a text editor. Really nice for writing scripts. Color coding, auto completion / closure and best of all, it has a "dark" theme.

What are you automating? There is next to nothing to do if you install from the ISO.
Are you trying to setup from a standalone system? For what purpose do you need to do it so often that you need to script it?

Basically just user setup, ssh port change, adding people to groups, and uninstalling unnecessary modules, etc. Nothing fancy, just felt like scripting tonight.

I like to have glances and a few tools that are no big deal, but annoying if I forget them. So I add those in.

Glances... I have to check that out. I've been looking for a better way to monitor remote servers.
