Re: [Users] oVirt 3.2.1 - VM in unknown status
* Hi, I had a nfs storage problems and one of my VM's is now in unknown state. The VM is not attached to any host. The virsh tool shows that VM is not running now. Is there any way to bring that kind of VM back to life? Best regards, Piotr Hi, I found workaround for this situation. There is a possibility to change the VM status manually in database: update vm_dynamic set status=0 where vm_guid='1d5342a3-9375-49c5-bf2a-2bd444d41d09'; @oVirt developers It seems that in some situations, VM with'unknown' status has no chances to change state. When all hosts in data center are up and the VM is not attached to any host it's a dead end. In this particular situation oVirt engine administrator can't perform any actions on lost VM. Is any way to handle this case without database access? Best regards, Piotr* Can you give me more information on how you're able to do this? I have an issue now. My VMs show Unknown status, too. If I give you remote access, can you change the status on the VMs for me? Thanks, Chris ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Whats more interesting is how have you got to that situation and if its worth a bug please be kind to report it. Hi Roy, I reported a bug (953839). If it would be considered as worth to fix I can provide some help. I haven't introduce jet to the oVirt community. So I'm software engineer in the Polish Research and Academic Computer Network. Mainly I'm Java EE developer. We use oVirt to manage our development and testing environments. I'm very enthusiastic about oVirt project. Welcome Piotr and thank you very much for posting the bug. Have a peek at wiki.ovirt.org to get more info about areas you have interest in. You can also join the IRC channel #ovirt on irc.oftc.net - checkout http://www.ovirt.org/Communication#IRC for more info PS sorry for my English.
