I tried some border value tests.
The invalid VDIs (0x000000 and 0xffffff) could be created and creating snapshots 
of them failed, so creating invalid VDIs should be avoided.

example 1:
  $ dog vdi create 01909709 1G  (create 0x000000)
  $ dog vdi snapshot 01909709
  Failed to create snapshot for 01909709

example 2:
  $ dog vdi create 05421217 1G  (create 0xffffff)
  $ dog vdi snapshot 05421217
  $ dog vdi list -r
  s 05421217 1 1073741824 0 0 DATE ffffff 3 22  (only this line)

Thanks,
Yoshifumi
