Cannot snapshot windows instance

I can get a Windows 2012 image running with no problems.  I am having trouble saving a snapshot.  When I try, it shuts down the image, and starts to save the snapshot, but it never completes successfully.

Is anybody else experiencing this issue?

‌how big is the image? You might be hitting the timeout issue we have between vC and esx when the snapshot ova is transferred to glance.

I will find the instructions to extend the timeouts.
