@Duncan: I tried with lvmdriver-1, fails with error: ImageCopyFailure: Failed to copy image to volume: qemu-img: /dev/mapper/stack--volumes--lvmdriver--1-volume--e8323fc5--8ce4--4676--bbec--0a85efd866fc: error while converting raw: Could not open device: Permission denied It's been configured

Thanks Avishay. In our case the middle layer (our storage appliance) doesn't allow a snapshot to be deleted if it has clones due to an internal implementation that tries to optimize storage by using a Dependency tree where the base volume is the root of the tree and snapshots or clones are nodes

Sorry, I meant to say that the expected behavior is that volumes are independent entities, and therefore you should be able to delete a snapshot even if it has volumes created from it (just like you should be able to delete a volume that has clones from it). The exception is that Cinder will not

Deleting a volume created from a snapshot is permitted. Performing operations on a volume created from snapshot should have the same behavior as volumes created from volumes, images, or empty (no source). In all of these cases, the volume should be deleted, regardless of where it came from.

I thought that case should be caught well before it gets to the driver. Can you retry with the LVM driver please? On 27 February 2015 at 10:48, Eduard Matei eduard.ma...@cloudfounders.com wrote: Hi, We've been testing our cinder driver extensively and found a strange behavior in the UI: -

Hi, We've been testing our cinder driver extensively and found a strange behavior in the UI: - when trying to delete a snapshot that has clones (created volume from snapshot) and error is raised in our driver which turns into error_deleting in cinder and the UI; further actions on that snapshot
