[ovirt-users] Snapshot issue

[Koen Vanoppen]

I just wanted to remove the snapshots in ovirt... That's all... And now
they are locked. Without the possibility to remove, reboot the vm or cancel
the snapshots...
So I'm stuck... How can I change the status of the snapshot in the db, so
that at least I can remove the VM? And what could be the impact , worst
case?

Kind regards,
