Hello,

we have done some snapshots on a Windowsserver, with RAM. Nothing special. We build 3 Snapshots. After we would like to Rollback to Snapshot 2, then we get the following errors:

VM 122 qmp command 'cont' failed - got timeout
TASK ERROR: VM 122 qmp command 'qom-set' failed - unable to connect to VM 122 qmp socket - timeout after 31 retries

Second trail:
we tries to shutdown the vm before rollback:
VM quit/powerdown failed - terminating now with SIGTERM
VM still running - terminating now with SIGKILL
VM 122 qmp command 'cont' failed - got timeout
TASK ERROR: VM 122 qmp command 'qom-set' failed - unable to connect to VM 122 qmp socket - timeout after 31 retries

Then we try the rollback another 3 times, and then it has worked out. But with an Error:
VM 122 qmp command 'cont' failed - got timeout
TASK ERROR: VM 122 qmp command 'qom-set' failed - unable to connect to VM 122 qmp socket - timeout after 31 retries

What is here the problem, is this only an timeout from webinterface, the the rollback has worked at first try?

Thanks and best Reards

not correctly installed is only because we use an older kernel. (issue in pvecluster)

Ok, i copied the hole VM with Snapshot's on an Testmachine, and without remove the machineline the rollback goes fine (don't know). I must also say we does not had this problem before. What i've seen: This "machine line" is only in Snapshots. I had a look at the other vm's. In no config there is this "machine line" only in the snapshot section. So what had this to do?

Thanks
