<p dir="ltr">I confirm that at least on f21 tc3 I was able to live delete snapshots, also into the active layer.<br>
See:<br>
<a href="http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-November/029450.html">http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2014-November/029450.html</a><br>
and the whole thread.<br>
I hope that RHEL 7.1 (and CentOS) will have the merging into the active layer too.... and not only into the chain history.</p>
