[Openstack-operators] Not able to take snapshot backup

Look at the available disk for cinder. If you're not using RBD or another
vendor driver, then you'll need at least as much free space as the size of
the VM. When you run out of space, the services tend to stop and block.

Also, if you set the limits but haven't rebooted, now is a good
opportunity. I think the system level governor will need it. Are you still
seeing the connections error? Any error in the logs is where you should
focus first.

Cheers,
-E
