Openstack instance snapshot is creates an empty image

I have a local devstack deployment of openstack kilo, I wanted to backup a running instance in openstack. So I wanted to create snapshot of a running instance. I did create snapshot of running instances (both with API and Horizon); however, it is creates an empty image of file size. I tried to locate log files at /var/log/cinder but there is no such directory. Also, I was not able to find such log files at other locations in root tree. So where should I find the log files (for errors etc.) ?

Create snapshot of instance which is boot from volume, will create an empty image in glance and create snapshots of the volumes attached to instance.
