Could you please file a bug for this: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com ? > If a volume deletion fails mid-process (e.g., network error), the VM record > is not updated even though some volumes may have been successfully removed. > A subsequent delete attempt repeats all operations, including 'path' (and > 'free_image') calls for volumes that were already deleted. > > > What is the proper response to 'path' and 'free_image' calls for a volume > that no longer exists? > For path, should the call fail (e.g., 'die'), succeed with an empty string, > or return a 'storage path'? (Most) implementations of path() for plugins shipped by us [0] do not do any I/O at all and thus don't check if the image actually exist. So you can return the path, even if the volume does not exist. Some of our implementations of free_image() fail if the volume does not exist, some do not. Nothing should break if you indicate success when free_image() is called and the image does not exist.
