Lionel hi, You should wait until the operation is done. Take a look at this example [1]. Regards, Fred [1] https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/e4ef67041a639cddbae82b172572a... On Fri, Sep 15, 2017 at 5:28 PM, Lionel Caignec <caignec@cines.fr> wrote:

Hi,

i'm playing with ovirt sdk, to automatically manage snapshots. My script is for now very basic step 1) list all vm of cluster step 2) for each vm create a snapshot if needed step 3) for each vm delete oldest snapshot No problem for step 1 and 2.

But step 3 is harder. If i launch snap remove with command "snapshots_service.snapshot_service( snap.id).remove()", python tell me snapshot operation already in progress (creation of snapshot in step2).

If i launch snap remove with parameter "async=true" the snapshot to delete is locked by ovirt, but never deleted.

So how can i do? Also there is some way to monitor running task about snapshot (ovirt-shell ...)?
