Hello everyone, I noticed that if a VM in HA on which you intervene to create a snapshot, if the creation times are a little longer than usual, the HA manager intervenes trying to migrate the VM.

you are not creating a snapshot, but rolling back. that involves stopping the VM, which HA notices and tries to correct. likely we should add a safeguard there. please file an enhancement request at https://bugzilla.proxmox.com !

Yes Fabian, clearly if the user creates a snapshot and to have the opportunity to go back. However, if the period is long, the same intervenes even during the creation phase ...
 
creating a snapshot doesn't stop the VM though, so HA shouldn't treat it as stopped either? but if you can trigger that behaviour with snapshot creation as well, please include the details in your report!

Ok, what can I do is report the error status of the GUI log of the HA system, or if you have to suggest something more detailed write to me, please write. It is important for the proper functioning of the Cluster.
 
pveversion -v, guest config, system log, task logs (of snapshot/rollback and HA actions) would be relevant.
