For cleaning these "Tasks" entries (which are actually Jobs in the DB), you will need to use taskcleaner.sh.
The unlock_entity.sh is for removing locks on entities.

ok. Thanks for clarifying the concept.
But from the inline help of taskcleaner.sh it is not so clear to me which option makes it display vs remove...
Perhaps without options it only display? or with "-T" it first displays asking if I want to remove "all comands that have running tasks"?
How can I only display?


Before running the task cleaner, you need to be sure you actually don't have any tasks running in the SPM.

How can I check this?
Is still valid this command I found on a previous (around 2014) thread and executed on the SPM (as shown in web admin portal) host right now?

[root@ov300 vdsm]# vdsClient -s 0 getAllTasksStatuses
{'status': {'message': 'OK', 'code': 0}, 'allTasksStatus': {}}

[root@ov300 vdsm]# 

Does it mean no task?



Regarding the snapshot creation on 'apex", can you provide the logs around the time of the operation?

engine.log is here:

vdsm log of the SPM host in .xz format here:
