@higebu: Thank you we will give it a try.
I think that should be the default setting as long as the problem is not fixed.

@brona Do you know exact reproducing procedure?
We noticed this problem with Veeam Backup and Replication tool that uses quiescence, but we could never reproduce it simply by making a snapshot of a test VM.

Also, I can't edit this task sadly, but no way the difficulty is less than an hour... It's pretty involved, open-vm-tools source repo doesn't make it particulary easy to debianize...
