Incremental forever Hyper-V backup setting host in snapshot mode.

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Running a Hyper-V incremental forever backup, the system is creating a AVHDX snapshot, to keep track of the changes between backups.

This set the host to run in "snapshot" mode and consumes space on the system. The space used will over time increase.

Running some administer task while the Hyper-V host is in snapshot mode is not possible.

We would like that the system keeps track of the changes without having the host running i snapshotmode, beacuse the space needed for AVHDX snapshot will grow indefinitely.

Microsoft recommends that snapshot mode is only used on test and development systems.
