I think it come from


    # search shared storage first
    foreach_writable_storage($conf, sub {
        my ($sid) = @_;
        my $scfg = PVE::Storage::storage_config($storecfg, $sid);
        return if !$scfg->{shared};

        $target = $sid if !$target || $scfg->{path}; # prefer file based storage
    });



we need to check if the storage can handle writing of vmstate. 

nexenta and rbd can't do it for now.

OK first problem is the QemuServer.pm and the hardcoded cases where 
snapshot is possible: 
die "can't snapshot volume '$volid'\n" 
if !(($scfg->{path} && $volname =~ m/\.qcow2$/) || 
($scfg->{type} eq 'rbd') || 
($scfg->{type} eq 'sheepdog')); 

If you add nexenta then snapshotting works fine except you want to 
include state. 

TASK ERROR: VM 102 qmp command 'snapshot-start' failed - Could not open 
'iscsi://10.255.0.10/iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:9f6ecfd8-ea21-cc24-fd90-f8a0d8edf0b6/6' 

Deleting snapshot results in: 
TASK ERROR: Nexenta API Error: More items found in D-Bus signature than 
in Python arguments at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/NexentaPlugin.pm 
line 34.
