Hi, In the mean time I've noticed the following entries in our periodic logcheck output:
Feb 3 09:05:53 orinoco journal: block copy still active: disk 'vda' not ready for pivot yet Feb 3 09:05:53 orinoco journal: vdsm root ERROR Unhandled exception#012Traceback (most recent call last):#012 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/utils.py", line 734, in wrapper#012 return f(*a, **kw)#012 File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/vm.py", line 5168, in run#012 self.tryPivot()#012 File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/vm.py", line 5137, in tryPivot#012 ret = self.vm._dom.blockJobAbort(self.drive.name, flags)#012 File "/usr/share/vdsm/virt/virdomain.py", line 68, in f#012 ret = attr(*args, **kwargs)#012 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vdsm/libvirtconnection.py", line 124, in wrapper#012 ret = f(*args, **kwargs)#012 File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 733, in blockJobAbort#012 if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainBlockJobAbort() failed', dom=self)#012libvirtError: block copy still active: disk 'vda' not ready for pivot yet This is from the host running the VM. Note that this host is not the SPM of the cluster. I always thought all operations on disk volumes happened on the SPM host? My question still remains: > I can see the snapshot in the "Disk snapshot" tab of the storage. It has > a status of "illegal". Is it OK to (try to) remove this snapshot?
