Remarks

A virtual disk snapshot is created when a snapshot of a virtual machine is created or manually using the PrlDisk_CreateState function. Each snapshot is identified using a universally unique ID (UUID). Snapshots of a given virtual disk are organized into a tree. You can use the PrlDisk_GetSnapshotsTree function to obtain the entire tree and then traverse it to obtain the UUID of a snapshot of interest. When you know the snapshot UUID, you can revert to it or delete it if needed.
