[ovirt-users] All snapshots read only

[Colin Coe]

I've just checked our dev and test RHEV instances (both also on v3.5.7),
and found that the overnight snapshot script is working correct and is
deleting old snapshots.  A quick check of other VMs shows their snapshots
do not have the delete button greyed out.

I'm thinking there's something screwy with this prod RHEV instance.
