Hi Giulio,

Before running unlock_entity.sh, let's try to find if there's any task in progress.

Is there any hint on the events in the UI?

Or try to run [1]:

./taskcleaner.sh -o

Also, you can verify what entities are locked [2]:

./unlock_entity.sh -q -t all -c

[2] https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/master/packaging/setup/dbutils/unlock_entity.sh

Regards,

Shani Leviim

Since yesterday I found a couple VMs with locked disk. I don't know the
reason, I suspect some interaction made by our backup system (vprotect,
snapshot based), despite it's working for more than a year.

I'd give a chance to unlock_entity.sh script, but it reports:

CAUTION, this operation may lead to data corruption and should be used
with care. Please contact support prior to running this command

Do you think I should trust? Is it safe? VMs are in production...

My manager is 4.4.4.7-1.el8 (CentOS stream 8), hosts are oVirt Node 4.4.4

TIA,
Giulio
