Hi,

We have recently updated our hyperv nova compute driver from Mitaka to Newton. So far, the update went with no major issues until recently; we updated our centos7 image through glance and for some reason, we are no longer able to spin up VMs.

The error message we are seeing from nova on our hyperv node is the following:

For those having the issue mentioned above, make sure that you have NO application / services using the VHDx file while uploading it.

In our case, the CentOS template VM was still turned on and hence locked the VHDx file.
