This error appears a few more times in the list's archive, all of which
seem to be related to rather-old bugs (3.5/3.6 times) or storage problems.
I assume you use 4.2. Are you sure the corruption happened only now? Did
working with snapshots worked well before the upgrade?

Seems so to me, but I am not a storage expert.

The lastest post, from 2016, included a workaround, you might (very
carefully!) try that.

I suggest to also open a bug and attach all relevant logs (engine, vdsm
from all relevant hosts, including SPMs at time of snapshot operations and
any other host that ran the VM), and try to give accurate reproduction
steps.
