Hi Everyone, I have this challange where I need to rollback a couple of vms to a certain base snapshot everytime it starts, for a school computer lab. It there a way to configure this feature somehow in the UI ? Thank you very much ! Leo

Maybe use stateless? https://ovirt.org/documentation/vmm-guide/appe-Reference_Settings_in_Adminis...

Yes, stateless pools is the feature you're looking for. The lab students can use VM Portal to check out a VM from the pool, and when they are done, the VM will reset. Documentation: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/admin-guide/chap-Pools.html (just noticed it has a formatting issue. I'll get that fixed asap.)
