[ovirt-users] how to remove VM and Hosts ?
hello what is the correct procedure to remove VMs and Hosts? I know the right way is to remove VMs first then remove your Host, but I generate 20 VMs, just for testing, and I want to remove either the host who hosts this VMs Environment: 3 servers: srv-01 = engine , vdsm srv-02 = vdsm , spm, lots of VMs srv-03 = vdsm , lots of VMs I removed 2 hosts of my ovirt-engine steps: 1) select host and put on maintenance 2) stop all VMs 3) remove host But in VM tab I can see all VMs and can not remove . steps 1) select VM and click on remove Are you sure you want to remove the following items? - pvm0203-2 Remove Disk(s) 2) click ok Operation Canceled Error while executing action: pvm0203-2: Cannot remove VM. VM is attached to a VM-Pool. What really happens here? Where is this files located to remove manually? thanks thanks ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I reinstalled the hosts step: 1) create new host I selected srv-02 2) host created 1) create new host I selected srv-03 2) host created and noticed two things : 1) I tried now, to remove the remaining VMs , but the error was the same : Cannot remove VM. VM is attached to a VM-Pool. 2) I can run theses VMs . That is, I can remove the host and reinsert again without VM problems. 2.1) And another detail: these VMs are thin/dependent. All others VMs that I was able to remove was the type clone/independent. What happens with this thin type provisioning?

Re: [ovirt-users] how to remove VM and Hosts ?
Problem solved: The VMs are related to POOL To remove these VMs 1) on tab POOLS : detach each VM from pool 2) remove pool (when I choose to detach all VMs from the pool this will remove the pool itself) When I do this , on the VM tab the icons of VMs changes from Pool Icon to Server Icon Then, on VM tab I select desired VM and click on remove. Now it works. finally: all VMs removed. now I can remove the Hosts On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 2:59 PM, Tamer Lima tamer.amer...@gmail.com wrote: I reinstalled the hosts step: 1) create new host I selected srv-02 2) host created 1) create new host I selected srv-03 2) host created and noticed two things : 1) I tried now, to remove the remaining VMs , but the error was the same : Cannot remove VM.
