Description of problem: The VM was apparently healthy. Then the user initiates a snapshot operation. 1. The engine creates the new volume (SPM). All good. 2. The engine sends SnapshotVDSCommand to the host running the VM. The VM starts using the new leaf volume. All good 3. The engine sends the exact same SnapshotVDSCommand again(!!!) It fails. 4. The engine tells the SPM to delete the LV that the VM just switched to in [2]. Now those extents are free but the VM is using them. A new volume create on the SD will overlap with the extents of the image used by the VM, causing data corruption for both. Engine side: 1.

There is a single POST to snapshots of this VM via API, just in case... [26/Nov/2018:03:35:15 +1300] "POST /ovirt-engine/api/vms/67711673-32a1-4803-873c-bfd029cfd1ca/snapshots HTTP/1.1" 201 13478
No progress, but just to document... 1) I tried to send a POST to /snapshots with the same disk duplicated as below, the engine fails with Internal Sever Error. It does not trigger this bug. <snapshot> <description>test2</description> <persist_memorystate>false</persist_memorystate> <disk_attachments> <disk_attachment> <disk id="0764dcb3-8b21-4cda-9899-5d18ecefc67f"/> </disk_attachment> <disk_attachment> <disk id="0764dcb3-8b21-4cda-9899-5d18ecefc67f"/> </disk_attachment> </disk_attachments> </snapshot> So I'm not sure this could have been triggered by an incorrect API request. 2) Also, the SnapshotVDS command seems to depend on what is returned here, it doesn't look duplicate: engine=> select count(*) from all_disks_for_vms where vm_id = '67711673-32a1-4803-873c-bfd029cfd1ca'; count ------- 1
Following an offline conversation, this issue was reported here - bug 1640225 (upstream).
Germano, did you see any disconnection from vdsm or any other error since the first snapshot request was sent? This may be also an infra issue, if infra try to resend the same command twice. Martin, do we have protection from sending the same command twice? On storage side we may also need to have protection from receiving response more then once. If we sent a command and received a response, the command should change the internal state so another response for the same command should be dropped.
(In reply to Nir Soffer from comment #8) > Germano, did you see any disconnection from vdsm or any other error since > the first > snapshot request was sent? Hi Nir, No, not on these logs and also not on BZ1640225 which is a very similar issue. The difference between this and BZ1640225 is that the latter is during a LSM, so the parent of CreateSnapshotForVm command is LiveMigrateDisk.
I haven't dug too deep yet, but given 2 different threads executed each of the SnapshotVDS commands, the only explanation coming to mind is that both of them ran the CreateSnapshotForVmCommand#performNextOperation, which might be due to some race condition in the polling stage, causing two scheduling threads to see the command as "SUCCEEDED" at the same time, and execute its "next operation" at the same time. Though it seems kind of strange given there was a 6 second delay between each snapshot attempt, but this could be due to the system being under load
