Did we instruct to test these flow to reduce this risk?
What are the relevant cases?

The main scenario we've addressed is removing any newer snapshots after restoring an older one
(of course only in case that we don't use any disk from the newer snapshots).
This is done to simplify the behavior and avoid confusing scenarios that we don't support
(i.e. prevent previewing VM configuration of a newer snapshot after restoring an older snapshot).

It's indeed an edge case and the fix suggested while in theory better than the condition before it still is quite risky.
Take into consideration that the old mechanism while flawed in this particular case worked flawlessly for a few versions now so we've decided that replacing the existing mechanism for zstream as well is not a good idea.

Can we consider a backport?
How complex is the fix?

Yaniv,

 

Yes, I’ve encountered it in 4.0.5.5. That’s why I started looking for existing bugs.

 

Thank you so much

The flow seem to be a edge case.

We can reconsider, have you encountered this issue?

It’s weird, isn’t it? That solution is not accepted, but the issue still does exist in 4.0.

There are two bugs (BZ#1379131 and BZ#1375139), but both are switched to 4.1.

Does it make sense to create another one?

 

Note that the bugs have urgent priority. Users can corrupt their VMs via the User Portal.

Hello,

 

 

Could somebody confirm, that the issue is not going to be fixed in 4.0?

 

It has not been merged to 4.0 branch, so I don’t assume so, the backport for 4.0 has been abandoned 

 

 

Thanks
