[Openstack-operators] Live snapshots on the raw disks never ends

I believe I was talking to Josh Harlow (he's harlowja in #openstack-operators on freenode) from Yahoo, about something like this the other day.  He was saying that recently on a few hypervisors they would randomly run into HV disks that were completely full due to snapshots.  I have not personally ran into this, so I can't be of more help.
