In the code there are two similar VM properties: archived and orphaned. They are defined in the code here: https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq/blob/master/app/models/vm_or_template.rb#L1278-L1289 archived (both Provider ID and storage ID are nil) ems_id.nil? && storage_id.nil? orphaned (Provider ID is nil but the storages ID is not) ems_id.nil? && !storage_id.nil? Loic - Yes, from everything I know the provider must be known to be able to manage snapshots for a VM. However, you may want to discuss with the Provider team at some point.
