A VM's snapshots form one chain: after a revert, delete the newer snapshots before taking another. An internal snapshot is reverted only on a shut-off VM. Snapshot names no longer get an `s1.` prefix. A snapshot an older version took of a UEFI VM can only be deleted, not reverted. On NFS, the qemu user needs write access to the image directory to remove merged snapshot files. +- External snapshots need libvirt 9.9 or newer on the computes. libvirt 9.10 (openEuler 24.03 LTS) refuses to revert a snapshot taken without memory of a running or paused VM ("Invalid target domain state 'disk-snapshot'"); 11.10 reverts it. A VM's snapshots form one chain: after a revert, delete the newer snapshots before taking another. An internal snapshot is reverted only on a shut-off VM. Snapshot names no longer get an `s1.` prefix. A snapshot an older version took of a UEFI VM can only be deleted, not reverted. On NFS, the qemu user needs write access to the image directory to remove merged snapshot files. - A storage volume a VM still needs (a disk, a backing file or a snapshot's file) is not deleted; deleting a VM with its files keeps a file another compute's VM or volume uses at the same path, and is refused before the VM is stopped when one of the other computes cannot be reached. - A VM that vanishes from its compute, or whose compute is deleted, keeps its owners for `INSTANCE_OWNERSHIP_RETENTION_DAYS` (30) in case the same UUID comes back; superusers manage these records on the "Removed VMs" page. - The Logs page records who changed what (computes, users, groups, VM owners, settings, SSH keys, host networks, pools, volumes, interfaces, secrets and network filters) and every login, failed login and lockout, with the address and the result.
