[ovirt-users] ovirt 3.5.6: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pk_images" during import

[Andrea Ghelardi]

Hallo all,

I'm currently unable to import/activate VM due to error above.
It has been a long series of unfortunate events.
Long story short:
- VM running on storage on iscsi failing disks
- put storage and server in maint. Shut down server
- restart server.
- server has a misconfiguration on lvm/multipath rules (not due to ovirt)
- put storage and server active
- cluster goes down. Put storage in maintenance again. Detached storage from cluster (ach! That was unfortunate).
- cluster now ok. Storage ok. Activate storage.
- trying to import VM. Ovirt replies with error in subject and attached.

How can I recover from this situation?
It would be great to recover the entire VM, but I'm more interested in disks which are in unregistered state than VM itself.

Thank you all
