Hi Ivan,

Thanks for the guide, good workaround for someone hitting the same issue. I 
must respectfully disagree with your sentiment though. As you have mentioned in 
your article issues like this tend to have a root cause – 
network outage, hypervisor issues etc. – and these issues vary from environment 
to environment and should be investigated on a case by case basis. Your 
suggested long term solution is just a workaround – error trapping and 
subsequent housekeeping should be improved in the CloudStack code, so the best 
thing to do is investigate, find root cause and log a Jira ticket such that it 
can be improved going forward.

    Hello, community.
    
    Today we (again) met snapshots stuck in exotic states and I decided to
    create small guide how to fix it. AFAIK, somebody tried to manage KB in
    GitHub about useful tools, cases, etc. It might be that small article can
    be included. I wrote it because short googling didn't give positive results
    about the problem. Also, all comments are welcome.

    Also, the same for Russian-speaking people:
