Abstract
A system and method are disclosed for servicing requests to create live snapshots of a plurality of virtual disks in a virtualized environment. In accordance with one example, a first computer system detects that a second computer system has issued one or more commands to create a first snapshot of a first virtual disk of a virtual machine and a second snapshot of a second virtual disk of the virtual machine while the virtual machine is running on the second computer system. In response to a determination that the creating of the second snapshot failed, the first computer system issues one or more commands to destroy the first snapshot and deallocate an area of a storage device that stores the first snapshot.
