[ovirt-users] Disk's locked of VM

Sun Jul 6 06:27:39 UTC 2014

Hi Andy,

Happy to (try to) help :)

What do you mean by putting the disks in stateless mode?
By server do you mean the storage server, I presume?
If so, I can see how this might have caused corruption. Still Would like to be sure what you mean to better understand the issue.
Unfortunately, vdsm log was not helpful due to the gap, but the engine log might help out if I knew what operation I was looking for.
BTW, Was the vdsm log on the SPM machine? If not, and you do still have it (or a rotation of it), I'd like to take a look and see if we have a bug hiding there.

Thanks,
Vered
