snapshotCreation task included in snapshot about meilisearch HOT 2 OPEN

Hey @savikko 👋,

Thank you very much for the report. It's an interesting bug report that we didn't notice before, even if it's been the behavior for a long time. You are using the snapshots and generating them the right way.

We need to figure out the best way to fix this issue. I would prefer we do the snapshot like we do, with the enqueued snapshotCreation task, but modify the snapshot afterward. Marking it as processed so we don't process it again when loading the snapshot.

I triaged this issue, and we will prioritize the work. Thank you again and have a good day 🌞

Yep, I think that would be way to go as this is kind of "special" case.

Also, as a workaround we are now setting snapshot output dir as something which is not writable so snapshotCreation just fails and we don't have to cancel that.

Thanks for everything, and have a good day also there! :)
