I presume that when snapshotting, some temporary snapshot is created in the ESXi, which then gets uploaded to glance, so I should check whether it is not left after I do have the complete snapshot in Glance. Right? After snapshotting a fresh VM completes, there is no Snapshot file, checking: /vmfs/volumes/52ced87d-d0fa9d20-ae0d-001b2177e266 # ls 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8/ 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8-b115e487.vswp 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8-delta.vmdk 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.nvram 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmdk 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmsd 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmx 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmx.lck 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmxf 5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8.vmx~ vmware.log vmx-5333299c-bb91-4fd7-b33a-448f401fdad8-2971001991-1.vswp There are no snapshots when using the web client either.
