Re: [ovirt-users] Ovirt snapshot failing on one VM

Restarting vdsm and hosts didn't do anything helpful. I was able to clone from latest snapshot, then live snapshot the new cloned VM. After upgrading engine to 3.4 and upgrading my hosts, I can now live snapshot this VM. *Steve * On Thu, Apr 24, 2014 at 1:48 AM, Itamar Heim wrote: > On 04/2

queries run on the system all the time but the only failure I encountered that was caused because of it was with live snapshots on a loaded setup in which vm running on the hsm would fail live snapshots if the system was loaded and the queries took a long time to come back. However, since the er

steve, I did not say that there is a limit. there is no limit and you can take a 1000 snapshots if you like, I simply said that I think that it would not be would a good practice to do so. I also did not say that this is your current problem with the vm so you are jumping to conclusions here. i

All snapshots are from before failure. That's a bit scary that there may be a 'too many snapshots' issue. I take snapshots for point in time consistency, and without the ability to collapse them while the vm is running I'm not sure what the best option is here. What is the recommended snapshot lim
