Issue:
https://redhat.atlassian.net/browse/CNV-88776

Link to docs preview:
Will add after preview build completes

QE review:

  • QE has approved this change.

Additional information:
Added an IMPORTANT admonition to virt-about-application-consistent-backups.adoc because the QEMU guest agent and VSS might not be fully responsive immediately after a Windows VM starts, which can cause the freeze or thaw hook to exceed its timeout and fail during a backup or snapshot taken too soon after boot.
