[ovirt-users] Question about manual pools and statefulness
Hi, as far as I understand Manual Pools should be stateful as long as the admin does not return the vm to the pool (removing the permissions). In my test lab I did the following: Created Windows template Sysprep and Shutdown Configured a manual pool with the above template Configure Initial run with domain membership and so on Assigned permissions to the pool Logged in in the user portal and launched my pool The vm starts up but in the admin portal I see the vm has a Stateless snapshot (read-only) VM TestPoolMan-1 was restarted on Host kvm02 as stateless Then in the user portal I shut down the vm and the stateless snapshot is removed VM TestPoolMan-1 is down.
