The volumes are created and added to the volume chain on the VM metadata domxml(two snapshots created). Then the user restores the latest snapshot and deletes them (while the VM is down) - they are removed. The VM is set with the volume and going up, restoring the memory. The mounting place (in /rhev/data-center) points to the same disk and volume. On the first run I see the new place /rhev/data-center/<uuid>... that I can't tell why or where it comes from. It is set with 'rw', while the normal destination to the shared NFS is only with 'r'.

The strangest thing is why it works on the second host? In RHV after the VM is up we remove the memory disk, but that doesn't happen in this case, since the VM wasn't up.
