This feature is being added during Kilo, https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/quiesced-image-snapshots-with-qemu-guest-agent, so if you want to test it, it's better to use devstack with trunk, there are some requirements: 1. libvirt >=1.2.5 2. os_require_quiesce=yes need to be set as image property
Note that so far only support instances booted from glance images, instances booted from volume for this feature is working in progress https://review.openstack.org/#/c/138795/.
