Hi Magnus,

You can find the VM's snapshot by sending a REST API request

http://localhost:8080/ovirt-engine/api/vms/<vm-id>/snapshots/

You can also find the VM's snapshots (and view their parameters) by using SQL:

select * from snapshots where vm_id = '<vm-id>';

You can also delete the relevant snapshot by specifying the snapshot's description:

delete from snapshots where description = '.....';

Regards,

Hi Shani

Thanks for the help.

What i can see it does not display any illegal statuses.

I am a bit unsure how to delete it from the DB, how do i find the snapshot_id?

Cheers

Magnus

Hi Magnus,

Sounds like you triggered this one https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1555116.

The error message you've got was meant to avoid removing a snapshot from a broken chain.

On the Active VM snapshot -> Disks, is there any disk with Illegal status?

Deleting the whole snapshot can be done from the DB:

delete from snapshots where snapshot_id = '.....';

Although it's recommended to understand the root cause for that one.

Can you please share your engine.log?

Regards,

Shani Leviim
