[ovirt-users] Question about manual pools and statefulness

[Cristian Mammoli]

Hi, as far as I understand Manual Pools should be "stateful" as long as 
the admin does not return the vm to the pool (removing the permissions).
In my test lab I did the following:
Created Windows template
Sysprep and Shutdown
Configured a manual pool with the above template
Configure "Initial run" with domain membership and so on
Assigned permissions to the pool

Logged in in the user portal and launched my pool
The vm starts up but in the admin portal I see the vm has a Stateless 
snapshot (read-only)
"VM TestPoolMan-1 was restarted on Host kvm02 as stateless"

Then in the user portal I shut down the vm and the stateless snapshot is 
removed
"VM TestPoolMan-1 is down. Exit message: User shut down from within the 
guest"

I powered up it again and now it is stateful (no snapshot)
"VM TestPoolMan-1 was started by c.mammoli at apra.it (Host: kvm02)."

So it's like the first time a user starts a vm in a manual pool it is 
stateless and from the second start it becomes stateful...
