Snapshot deletion fails with error reported as "Drive image file could not be found"
Last modified: 2018-05-15 13:42:08 EDT
Description of problem: Unable to delete a snapshot when one of the disk's which is part of it is deactivated. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ovirt-engine-4.0.5.5-0.1.el7ev.noarch How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create 2 new disks for a VM . 2. Create a snapshot with the above 2 disks involved. 3. Deactivate one of the disk's that is part of the snapshot. 4. Delete the snapshot and it will result in the error below engine.log -------------------- Engine exception thrown while sending merge command: org.ovirt.engine.core.common.errors.EngineException: EngineException: org.ovirt. engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.VDSErrorException: VDSGenericException: VDSErrorException: Failed to MergeVDS, error = Drive image file could not be found, code = 13 (Failed with error imageErr and code 13) 5. The disk that is activated gets removed successfully and the disk or image is marked as illegal. 6. once activated again from the disk's tab it can be removed . Actual results: -results in the disk/image being marked as illegal in the snapshot . - stale snapshot entry in table. Expected results: - warning to user indicating that one of the disk is in inactive or deactivated state. Additional info:
It'd be great if you could attach relevant engine and vdsm logs.
If I remember correctly this is the expected behavior, Daniel can you confirm?
@Ala - is it the excepted behavior with live merge? or perhaps related to bug 1327140 ?
It is the expected behavior though a warning indicating that the snapshot will not be removed the non-active disk will be marked as illegal (in the disks sub-tab in the snapshots tab)
@Ala, Currently there is no warning or indication as such and hence wouldn't it be a good idea to have a warning indication or notification for this case. Ribu
