Error in VM nameresolution on delete cloned-vm about ovirtbackup HOT 13 CLOSED

I’m closing this issue because it has been inactive for a few months. This probably means that it is not reproducible or it has been fixed in a newer version.

I think this issue should not be closed blindly.

AFAICS the code part in question has not been changed and the issue raised seems reasonable to me.

Thanks for the quick response, I reopen the issue.
Have you tested the issue with the latest release? And please tell us more about your environment.

from ovirtbackup.

I am first going to test the api4 changes against our oVirt 4.3 installation anyway.

So I can include this corner case as well.

I will let you know of the results here.

Thanks for still caring for this project!

from ovirtbackup.

i've tested my changes from my initial post now for almost one year and it fixed the behavior and working without any issues on oVirt 4.3.

Also from me, thank you all for still working on this project.
oVirtBackup is essential for me to make timed backups from ~50 systems on a daily basis and it would be really nice to see it working with oVirt 4.4 API.

@MEy3 Thanks for the response

@stolp If you still have problems please open a new issue

from ovirtbackup.

So you added my changes to your code? The Issue is in your lastest public version of this project still present until you changed your code like i did and written in the initial post of this issue.

from ovirtbackup.

@MEy3 I created a pull request with your changes. Please review.

Sadly I was not able to test this, as I wasn't able to run current master against our oVirt 4.3 installation.

from ovirtbackup.

I created a new branch to test against my oVirt 4.3 environment. There I changed the line. I'm not sure if double "_" solves the problem. Please test the branch with your version.

from ovirtbackup.

I will test this, thanks!

The ““ is the separator between VMname and Date. Without “” the script fails to get the proper name of the Test1 vm clone and deletes the last one that can be found from Test2 which is wrong. Also it happend that not only the wrong clone get’s deleted also so entire VM Test2 incl. Discimage image. That happens twice so I had to restore it from an older backup and modified the script last year. “__*” takes care to get the exact name of the vm and ensure due to the separator to only delete the correct clone.

from ovirtbackup.

It is not possible with any release that the whole VM is delete only if you have nothing set to "vm_middle" in your config. But if you wish I add this to the master and oVirt4.3 branch
