Re: [ovirt-users] Can't remove snapshot
Hi,
In the mean time I've noticed the following entries in our periodic
logcheck output:
Feb 3 09:05:53 orinoco journal: block copy still active: disk 'vda' not
ready for pivot yet
Feb 3 09:05:53 orinoco journal: vdsm root ERROR Unhandled

This is from the host running the VM.
Note that this host is not the SPM of the cluster. I always thought all
operations on disk volumes happened on the SPM host?
My question still remains:
I can see the snapshot in the "Disk snapshot" tab of the
storage. It has
a status of "illegal". Is it OK to (try to) remove this snapshot? Will
this impact the running VM and/or disk image?
Regards,
Rik
