Descripción

Summary:
When deleting a VM snapshot on KVM for a VM with more than one disk, each disk's data gets folded back into its real file one at a time, but CloudStack only gets a single "succeeded or failed" answer for the whole set. If an earlier disk's fold finishes for real but a later disk's then fails or times out, the whole thing is reported as failed, so CloudStack never updates its record for the disk that actually finished. Its database is left pointing to a file that no longer exists, with nothing to catch or fix this later. The VM then fails to start with "Can't find volume:", and the only current fix is to manually correct the database to match the real file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a VM with two or more disks on KVM.
2. Take a VM snapshot, then delete it while the VM has enough disk activity that the merge takes a while (or induce a timeout/communication failure partway through the multi-disk merge).
3. If one disk's merge completes on the host before another disk's merge fails/times out, the completed disk's volumes.path is left stale.
4. Attempt to start the VM. It fails looking for the old file.

Environment where this was observed: KVM, disk-only VM snapshots, VM with 2 disks (ROOT + DATA), primary storage on NFS.

Línea de trabajo

Comienza rastreando la ruta de eliminación de snapshots de KVM para fusiones de varios discos y cómo su resultado agregado actualiza las rutas de los volúmenes; el issue no proporciona nombres de archivos ni de pruebas. Reproduce un fallo en una fusión parcial y, después, verifica que los discos completados conserven rutas de base de datos válidas y que la VM pueda iniciarse sin reparar manualmente la base de datos.
