[openstack-community] openstack volume snapshots and deleting
If I create a volume, snapshot it, and create a new volume from that snapshot, I cannot seem to delete the snapshot until the volume is deleted. Is this intentional, or am I doing something wrong? Is the new volume based on the snapshot, and that's why I can't delete it? We're using CEPH as a storage backend if that makes a difference. openstack volume snapshot create -volume base-volume base-ss openstack volume create -snapshot base-ss new-volume openstack volume snapshot delete base-ss The last command is the one that fails. It gives no error message. It just doesn't actually delete the snapshot. But If I do this: openstack volume delete new-volume openstack volume snapshot delete base-ss Then it works. I also tried creating a snapshot, creating a volume from the snapshot, then creating a volume from that volume, but I still cannot delete the snapshot until both volumes are deleted. I do not want everlasting snapshots, so I hope I'm doing something wrong that someone can point out. Thanks. --John
