[Users] oVirt3.0 - locked image when creating VM from template

Wed May 29 12:27:57 UTC 2013

Hi,

I ran in this strange issue in oVirt 3.0:
A VM creation from a certain template doesn't seem to work / show any progress.
The image gets locked,  event view shows start of VM creation, but nothing changes.
Usual deploying time is under 10 minutes

Engine log output:

This just happened once, new VM creations with templates are working.
The only problem is ,the affecting template is locked now and I don't know how to free the diskimage (vdsmd of SPM responsible here or just a DB entry?)

Thanks in advance!

Best, Sven.
