STATUS_HV_INVALID_SAVE_RESTORE_STATE
The save or restore request violates the partition state machine
STATUS_HV_INVALID_SAVE_RESTORE_STATE means the selected partition is not in a valid state for the requested save or restore operation. It does not say that the saved image itself is corrupt. The failure occurs before the lifecycle prerequisites for the operation are satisfied.
Snapshot-like operations must be coordinated with partition execution and resource transitions. Capture the full state-machine history: whether the VM was active, paused, stopping, finalized, or being deleted; whether VP and memory operations were complete; and whether another management action was already changing the state.
What to inspect
- Partition state before the save/restore call and the state transition expected by the caller.
- Concurrent stop, reset, pause, delete, or resource-withdraw operations.
- Completion state of virtual processors and deposited guest memory.
- The host-management operation ID used to serialize stateful requests.
