[ovirt-users] Failed to hot-plug disk
Hello,
I have a problem when i tried to hotplug a disk to a VM. Here is the situation.
We use a VM (let's call this backupVM) which is responsible of doing our VM backup by
:
- Making a snapshot of the VM we want to backup
- Attach the snapshot disk
- Make the copy using DD
- Unplug the snapshot disk and then delete snapshot.
For some reason that i don't know, for certain VM, the backupVM cannot hot plug the
snapshot disk.
I'm using ovirt 4.2.4
Here is what is see in engine.log
