I agree user shouldn’t have to update DB. There needs to be some periodic cleanup task that “fixes” the vm_state/task_state for “stuck” instances.

This is the only option? I've already done that, but it's kind "strange" I update the database row everytime the script identifies a VM with error. ________________________________ Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2012 09:39:03 +0800 Subject: Re: [Openstack] Can't delete instances with "error" status.

After that, try to use euca-terminate On Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 1:24 AM, Guilherme Birk <guib...@hotmail.com<mailto:guib...@hotmail.com>> wrote: I'm attempting to make a python script that controls all my virtual machines. Sometimes, when the script identifies that exists an instance with status of "error", he creates a new instance and tries to delete the old one with curl commands, but I'm not getting any response and the VM isn't deleted. When I execute euca-terminate instance <i-name> I got nothing too. How I should delete instances with error status ? I didn't found any way using nova-manage too. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack<https://launchpad.net/%7Eopenstack> Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net<mailto:openstack@lists.launchpad.net> Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack<https://launchpad.net/%7Eopenstack> More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp -- 非淡薄无以明志，非宁静无以致远
