Hi All, I’ve recently written a script which: 1. Takes a snapshot with memory. 2. Creates a VM from that snapshot. 3. Exports the snapshot to the export domain. 4. Deletes the snapshot. 5. Deletes the cloned VM. Whilst running the script for the first time last night, the script timed out whilst deleting the snapshot on the VM at step 4. Now the logs are filled with: 2016-02-25 10:32:53,272 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommandCallback] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-25) [4559dd29] Waiting on Live Merge child commands to complete 2016-02-25 10:32:53,332 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotSingleDiskLiveCommand] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-25) [225b841f] Waiting on Live Merge command step MERGE to complete 2016-02-25 10:32:53,335 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.MergeCommandCallback] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-25) [4559dd29] Waiting on merge command to complete 2016-02-25 10:32:55,331 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-19) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress (no change) 2016-02-25 10:32:58,405 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-37) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress, updating 2016-02-25 10:33:01,521 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-56) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress (no change) 2016-02-25 10:33:03,337 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommandCallback] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-12) [4559dd29] Waiting on Live Merge child commands to complete 2016-02-25 10:33:03,350 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotSingleDiskLiveCommand] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-12) [225b841f] Waiting on Live Merge command step MERGE to complete 2016-02-25 10:33:03,352 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.MergeCommandCallback] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-12) [4559dd29] Waiting on merge command to complete 2016-02-25 10:33:04,678 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-22) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress (no change) 2016-02-25 10:33:07,852 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-11) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress (no change) 2016-02-25 10:33:10,993 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-44) [4559dd29] VM job c1064551-022f-4549-a9d4-bb915e177e80: In progress, updating 2016-02-25 10:33:13,354 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.RemoveSnapshotCommandCallback] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-14) [4559dd29] Waiting on Live Merge child commands to complete I have attached the log of when the snapshot started deleting (2016-02- 24 23:51:17,094). Any idea what's gone wrong? What are my next steps to clear this?
