[PVE-User] pvesh delete /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/snapshot/{snapname} -force doesnt work as expected ?

[IMMO WETZEL]

Hi,



help command shows delete snapshot with option force but this isnt executed correctly.

See output below. Or do I something wrong ?

Background: The snapshot doesnt exists in qcow2 disk file but in config. Therefore force should help as expected and remove the snapshot entry from the config file.



root at prox01:/root# pvesh help /nodes/prox05/qemu/161/snapshot/initialSnapShot --verbose

help [path] [--verbose]

cd [path]

ls [path]



USAGE: delete /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/snapshot/{snapname}  [OPTIONS]



  Delete a VM snapshot.



  -force     boolean



             For removal from config file, even if removing disk snapshots

             fails.



...



So -force should be the one I need.



But see here:



root at prox01:/root# pvesh delete  /nodes/prox05/qemu/161/snapshot/initialSnapShot -force

usage: delete [path]



So why I see the usage string here ?



Following is correct cos snapshot can't be found



root at prox01:/root# pvesh delete  /nodes/prox05/qemu/161/snapshot/initialSnapShot

command '/usr/bin/qemu-img snapshot -d initialSnapShot /mnt/pve/Storage/images/161/vm-161-disk-1.qcow2' failed: exit code 1

qemu-img: Could not delete snapshot 'initialSnapShot': (Can't find the snapshot)
