[ovirt-devel] Message "VM restart is recommended. Note that using the created snapshot might cause data inconsistency"

[Christopher Pereira]

Hi,

After a Live Storage Migration Engine reported:

    Failed to create live snapshot 'Auto-generated for Live Storage
    Migration' for VM 'test'.
    VM restart is recommended. Note that using the created snapshot
    might cause data inconsistency.

Let's say we restarted the VM and everything is working fine.
In the snapshots tab, I see two snapshots: "Current" and a 
"Auto-generated for Live Storage Migration".
We have the option to delete the "Auto-generated for Live Storage 
Migration" snapshot.

Is there a chance that deleting this snapshot will commit it and corrupt 
it's backing chain image?

Why is a restart recommended?
