Re: [ovirt-users] Python API question

Hi all
I've written a Python script to take nightly snapshots of VMs which
are kept for x days. After x days the snapshot is deleted.
I can't work out how to wait for the snapshot deletion to complete. I
know how to do it for creating the snapshot but I've not been able to
get it right for the deletion.
api.vms.get(VM_NAME).snapshots.add(params.Snapshot(description=SNAPSHOT_NAME,
vm=api.vms.get(VM_NAME), persist_memorystate=True))
while api.vms.get(VM_NAME).status.state == 'image_locked':
sleep(1)
Any ideas?
We take a snapshot just after a VM creation, just to have a point of
origin to roll back to in case of total f-up:) Looks like this:
while api.vms.get(VM_NAME).snapshots.list()[1].get_snapshot_status() ==
'locked':
In our case, we only have one snapshot at that time though, since the VM
has just been created. Your code would have to be more complex to find
the most recent one, I´d think.
