Resource InventoryVirtual Machine

Deleting a virtual machine snapshot times out. How do I resolve this?

Cause

The default timeout for deleting a Snapshot is three hours. A large snapshot size causes the operation to time out.

Solution

  1. Connect to the Management Node via SSH.

  2. Run the following commands to extend the timeout to 24 hours:

    [root@localhost ~]# zstack-cli
admin >>> LogInByAccount accountName=admin password=$password  //platform admin user password
admin >>> UpdateGlobalConfig name=org.zstack.header.storage.snapshot.APIBatchDeleteVolumeSnapshotMsg category=apiTimeout value=24h
admin >>> UpdateGlobalConfig name=org.zstack.header.storage.snapshot.APIDeleteVolumeSnapshotMsg category=apiTimeout value=24h

  3. Retry the snapshot deletion.
