We use oVirt 4.2.5.2-1.el7 (Hosted engine / 4 hosts in cluster / about twenty virtual machines)
Virtual machine disks are located on the Data Domain from FC SAN.
Snapshots of all virtual machines are created normally. But for one virtual machine, we can not create a snapshot.
When we try to create a snapshot in the oVirt web console, we see such errors:
Aug 13, 2018, 1:05:06 PM Failed to complete snapshot 'KOM-APP14_BACKUP01' creation for VM 'KOM-APP14'.
Aug 13, 2018, 1:05:01 PM VDSM KOM-VM14 command HSMGetAllTasksStatusesVDS failed: Could not acquire resource. Probably resource factory threw an exception.: ()
Aug 13, 2018, 1:05:00 PM Snapshot 'KOM-APP14_BACKUP01' creation for VM 'KOM-APP14' was initiated by petya@sub.holding.com@sub.holding.com-authz.
At this time on the server with the role of "SPM" in the vdsm.log we see this:

Looks like you have a volume without metadata in the chain.
This may happen in the past when deleting a volume failed, but we
cleared the volume metadata. In current 4.2, this cannot happen, since
we clear the metadata only if deleting the volume succeeded.
Can you post complete vdsm log with this error?
Once we find the volume without metadata, we can delete the LV
using lvremove. This will fix the issue.
Shani, do you remember the bug we have with this error?
this probably the same issue.
Ala, I think we need to add a tool to check and repair such chains.
