Could you please give me some details: - what version are you using? - do you create a thin provision disk from template or a clone? - do you have only one disk on the template or many? - when creating a vm from template, do you assign same quota to the VM and the disks or a different one?

Hi, we are using Centos6.4 withoVirt Engine Version: 3.2.2-1.1.el6. We created a VM in admin portal, installed centos6 minimal and created a template. The template has a thin provisioned disk. The disk is shared to everyone. Then as a user in the frontend portal (user has quota, and vmcreator permisions on datacenter) we create a server with this template - in the resources tab we have to check thin for template provisioning (on clone we get a permission denied), and the user quota is selected ok for the user. When the VM is created, we check in the admin backend, we see that the disk quota is not right, but is the quota from the template. If we change the disk quota to the user, he can then make clones, his quota is reported right and everything works as expected. Andrej On 06/12/2013 03:42 PM, Ofri Masad wrote:

Hi,
I digged into the problem and the user has the UserVmManager privileges on the VM. The problem must be with the creation of the VM from template, where the userfrontend does not assign the right quota to the disk when creating a vm from template. This was also notified by Jure in the "[Users] Disk quota and templates bug?" thread.
If I assign the right dick quota to the user (his quota) the snapshoting works.
We will wait for the fix on the create vm from template disk quota fix.
Thank you.

If that does not do the trick - check the user's quota - maybe he's out.

Hi,
I have a user with VmCreator rights in the datacenter. He can create, edit, manipulate his own virtual macihnes, but he can not add a snapshot to his own virtual machines. What rights do I have to give him also, so he can have the snapshot functionality as well? Right now he does get a " Error while executing action: User is not authorized to perform this action." message. The Virtual machine is powered down at the time of taking a snapshot.
Thank You.

Will it be backported to 3.2 (like in 3.2.3)? What is on the other hand roadmap for release for 3.3?

Hi,
we are using Centos6.4 withoVirt Engine Version: 3.2.2-1.1.el6. We created a VM in admin portal, installed centos6 minimal and created a template. The template has a thin provisioned disk. The disk is shared to everyone. Then as a user in the frontend portal (user has quota, and vmcreator permisions on datacenter) we create a server with this template - in the resources tab we have to check thin for template provisioning (on clone we get a permission denied), and the user quota is selected ok for the user. When the VM is created, we check in the admin backend, we see that the disk quota is not right, but is the quota from the template. If we change the disk quota to the user, he can then make clones, his quota is reported right and everything works as expected.

Hi Andrej,
Actually, we haven't been able to reproduce this bug. Could you please give me some details: - what version are you using? - do you create a thin provision disk from template or a clone? - do you have only one disk on the template or many? - when creating a vm from template, do you assign same quota to the VM and the disks or a different one?
Thanks, Ofri
