Kurt,
By default, ACS will not HA VMs due to a host failure, as ACS assumes the storage could still be mounted (machine isn't cleanly fenced off). Deleting the host from ACS should trigger a failover of the VMs. There's a lot of work in progress to deal with this a lot more gracefully. A few folks have written out-of-band applications that watch the logs via a queue (e.g. RabbitMQ) and on host failover use an api call to remove/disable the hosts to force the VMs to be restarted on another host. - Si ________________________________ From: Kurt K <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 13, 2017 2:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Cloudstack High Availability(HA) Testing Hi There, We are in the middle of some confusion regarding Cloustack High Availability(HA) testing. In our deployment, we have used 2 hypervisor kvm servers. We have created a VM with HA compute offering in hypervisor2 server and then we have enabled maintenance mode on hypervisor2. After that the VM's are online from hypervisor1 server. But when we bring down the hypervisor2 server forcefully, the Vm's are not online from hypervisor1 server. We need help/suggestions on this. We are using below stack versions on all of our servers. ==== Cloudstack - 4.6.0 CentOS - 7.3 ==== Also both hypervisors are in same cluster. Please shed some lights to us. -Kurt
