+blockdev-snapshot-sync
+----------------------
+
+Synchronous snapshot of a block device. snapshot-file specifies the
+target of the new image. If the file exists, or if it is a device, the
+snapshot will be created in the existing file/device. If does not
+exist, a new file will be created. format specifies the format of the
+snapshot image, default is qcow2.
+
+Arguments:
+
+- "device": device name to snapshot (json-string)
+- "snapshot-file": name of new image file (json-string)
+- "format": format of new image (json-string, optional)
+
+Example:
+
+-> { "execute": "blockdev-snapshot", "arguments": { "device": "ide-hd0",
+ "snapshot-file":
+ "/some/place/my-image",
+ "format": "qcow2" } }
+<- { "return": {} }
