Hi Lionel,

The error message you've mentioned sounds like a UI error.
Can you please attach your ui log?

Also, on the data from 'images' table you've uploaded, can you describe
which line is the relevant disk?

Finally (for now), in case the snapshot was deleted, can you please
validate it by viewing the output of:
$ select * from snapshots;



*Regards,*

*Shani Leviim*
