Subject: Re: [Users] Disk state - Illegal?
I was just wondering, did anyone ever find the root cause of this issue?
Hi,
Disk will be in illegal status in case that ovirt failed to initiate the delete
task for it,
as the engine can't tell what's the exact disk state at this stage (on what
phase the delete operation has failed) - the disk status is shown is illegal.
Therefore there might be many possible reasons, each issue that will fail the
creation of the delete task would cause the disk to remain in that status
(along permissions issues)
The disk deletion won't succeed till those issues would be resolved.
That's okay, but how can I see the reason of the issue? I've been
looking for into /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log on the engine but I
haven't found anything about it. I failed to remove this disk with the
webadmin or the API. It's very annoying because it is a 100GB disk on a
SAN and ovirt considers that there is no left space enough on the
relevant storage domain to create any more vms...
Mine still seems to be doing the same thing, is it a permission issue or a
bug?

I was off today, so I just saw this. I will try it out tomorrow.
Thanks!

I noticed that too, I wasn't sure if it was a bug or just how I had
setup my NFS share..
There were three steps I did to remove the disk images, I'm sure there's
a 100% easier solution..:
I found the easiest way (graphically) was go to your
https://ovirtengine/api/disks and so a search for the illegal disk.
Append the extra ID eg. <diskhref="/api/disks/lk342- dfsdf...
into your URL this'll give you your image ID.
Go to your storage share:
cd /data/storage-id/master/vms/ storage-id
grep -ir 'vmname' *
You'll find the image-id reference here too.
Then the image you will want to remove is in the
/data/storage-id/images/image- id
I assume you could safely remove this whole folder if you wanted to
delete the disk.
To remove the illegal state I did it through the API so again with the
URL above https://ovirtengine/disks/ disk-id send a DELETE using HTTP/CURL
Again, this was a poor mans solution but it worked for me.

Hi,
I have another hopefully simple question.
One VM that I am trying to remove says that it's disk state is
"illegal" and when I try to remove the disk it says that it failed
to initiate the removing of the disk.
Is there an easy way to get rid of these illegal disk images?
