Aha! Okay, I was able to reproduce this. Looks like @rpelissi was on the right path in suggesting the timeout parameter is not being honored somewhere. I dropped the timeout to 5 seconds in my testing but I had to clone a massive enough VM to cause the lock error to occur after 5 minutes of waiting for the clone to finish. I’ll dive in here and update when I think I’ve found a solution. In the meanwhile I do believe the clone_wait attribute should be a valid workaround.
