Hi,
Disk will be in illegal status in case that ovirt failed to initiate the delete task for
it,
as the engine can't tell what's the exact disk state at this stage (on what phase
the delete operation has failed) - the disk status is shown is illegal.
Therefore there might be many possible reasons, each issue that will fail the creation of
the delete task would cause the disk to remain in that status (along permissions issues)
The disk deletion won't succeed till those issues would be resolved.
That's
okay, but how can I see the reason of the issue? I've been
looking for into /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log on the engine but I
haven't found anything about it. I failed to remove this disk with the
webadmin or the API. It's very annoying because it is a 100GB disk on a
SAN and ovirt considers that there is no left space enough on the
relevant storage domain to create any more vms...
