Live Merge completes on the host, but Engine waits for it to complete and times out

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Cannot delete illegal snapshots from VM.

  • The illegal snapshots are preventing these VMs from starting, reporting Bad volume specification.

  • A snapshot deletion (Live Merge) failed.

  • Live Merge completed on the host, but not on the engine, which just waited for it to complete until the operation was terminated

  • Live snapshot deletions fail until the ovirt-engine service is restarted.

  • Previously, the postgresql service had been restarted.
