Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for enabling disk image operations in conjunction with snapshot locking. An example method may include: attaching a first snapshot to a first virtual machine the first snapshot being stored within a disk image, generating, in view of the first snapshot, a second snapshot, the second snapshot being stored within the disk image, attaching the first snapshot to a second virtual machine, and causing the first snapshot to be locked in view of the second virtual machine performing one or more operations on the first snapshot, wherein the first virtual machine performs one or more operations on the second snapshot concurrent with the locking of the first snapshot.
