[ovirt-users] Unable to move disk on (non-)stateless machine

Hi,

We're running oVirt 3.6.3.4-1. We have 2 storage domains of the same 
kind (both iSCSI). We're moving some of the disks from one to other, 
preferably without shutting down the machine. When moving a disk with 
the VM started, the following error is thrown:

     Error while executing action: Cannot move Virtual Machine Disk. The 
VM is running as Stateless. Please try again when VM is not running as 
Stateless.

This machine is inside a VM pool based on a template that is not 
stateless, nor is the VM pool, nor the VM itself.

In [1]: template = api.templates.get(name='templatename')
In [2]: template.get_stateless()
Out[2]: False

In [3]: vm = api.vms.get(name='vmname')
In [4]: vm.get_stateless()
Out[4]: False

Additionally, in the General tab of the VM Pool:

     Is Stateless:    false

If nothing is stateless, why is the error shown?

Thanks.

Nicolás
