Hi, Had some improvement with this issue.
Could boot the instance using virsh, following livemoon advice with small adaptation. However the problem still is not fixed. The volume table was update: mysql -unova -p$PW nova -e "update volumes set mountpoint=NULL, attach_status='detached', instance_uuid=0" mysql -unova -p$PW nova -e "update volumes set status='available' where status <> 'error_deleting'" Restarted the instance: # virsh undefine instance-00000038 error: Refusing to undefine while domain managed save image exists # virsh undefine instance-00000038 --managed-save Domain instance-00000038 has been undefined # virsh define libvirt.xml Domain instance-00000038 defined from libvirt.xml # virsh start instance-00000038 Domain instance-00000038 started Then I update the database with the new instances status: # mysql -unova -p nova -e "update instances set power_state='1',vm_state='active',task_state=NULL where uuid = '7e732b31-2ff8-4cf2-a7ac-f1562070cfb3'" I can now connect to the instance. That is a great improvement from my original problem. But there still some serius issues to fix: The instance can not be rebooted (hard reboot). It will not start, with the same errors as before. Also, we can not attach the volume back to the instance: # nova volume-attach 7e732b31-2ff8-4cf2-a7ac-f1562070cfb3 647db677-aa48-4d1e-b875-80be73469cb5 /dev/vdc ERROR: The supplied device path (/dev/vdb) is in use. ... The error is: DevicePathInUse: The supplied device path (/dev/vdb) is in use. /dev/vdb is one ephemeral disk. Why nova is trying to use /dev/vdb when I specified /dev/vdc ?
