Hi all,

I have ovirt 4.2.7, self-hosted on top gluster, with two servers.

I have a specific VM which has encountered some snapshot issues.

The engine lists 4 snapshots and when trying to delete one of them I get "General command validation failure".

The VM was being backed up periodically by a python script which was creating a snapshot -> clone -> export -> delete clone -> delete snapshot. There were times where the VM was complaining of some illegal snapshots following such backup procedures and I had to delete such illegal snapshots references from the engine DB (following some steps found online), otherwise I would not be able to start the VM if it was shut down. Seems though that this is not a clean process and leaves the underlying image of the VM in an inconsistent state in regards to its snapshots as when checking the backing chain of the image file I get:
