Hi Juergen,
if you are using kvm/qemu with libvirt you can try to delete the
snapshot with the qemu monitor commands.
The general syntax is
virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp <domain> '<command> [...]'
So you can try
virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp DOMINO1-prealloc 'info snapshots'
and thne delete it with the provided snapshot ID
virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp DOMINO1-prealloc 'delvm <ID>'
This will delete the snapshot from your diskimage.
Yeah, but that won't delete it from libvirt's memory. Using
qemu-monitor-command to go behind libvirt's back is unsupported, and in
this particular case, is likely to lead to a case where you can make
libvirtd segfault.
