Hi, the shutdown issue might be related to the double Vnet IP allocation bug: http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/1178
As you said, the VM doesn't reach the DONE state and therefore the IP doesn't get released. The user has probably assumed it is gone and requested the IP again.
Thanks for pointing to the retry argument for IM and VMM drivers! I'll give it a try.

Are you sure the OpenNebula VM is in running state? or did I misunderstand you? 2) onevm delete fails: It is similar to 1). virsh destroy gives an error (ExitCode: 42), but the transfer manager is wiping the disks even though the VM is still running.

In this case neither the user nor the administrator realize that the VM is still running unless you check the physical host locally or you take a look at the VM's log file. Yes, in this case OpenNebula assumes that the destroy action always succeeds. Unlike the graceful shutdown action, the VM is not monitored after the delete action. As a workaround to this erratic virsh failures, you can set a retry in the IM and VMM drivers in oned.conf, using the -r argument option [1] IM_MAD = [ name = "im_kvm", executable = "one_im_ssh", arguments = "-r 3 -t 15 kvm" ] VM_MAD = [ name = "vmm_kvm", executable = "one_vmm_exec", arguments = "-t 15 -r 3 kvm", default = "vmm_exec/vmm_exec_kvm.conf", type = "kvm" ] Regards [1] http://opennebula.org/documentation:documentation:devel-vmm -- Carlos Martín, MSc Project Engineer OpenNebula - The Open-source Solution for Data Center Virtualization www.OpenNebula.org<http://www.OpenNebula.org> | [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> | @OpenNebula<http://twitter.com/opennebula><mailto:[email protected]> On Thu, Mar 22, 2012 at 6:48 PM, Danny Sternkopf<[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi, I do encounter (very rarely as it seems) problems where VMs are not properly deleted or shut off by onevm commands. I use ONE 3.0, hosts running Fedora15 and KVM and libvirt. 1) onevm shutdown fails: I can see in the VM log file that the shutdown operation timed out and the VM is still running. Unfortunately I don't see the reason why 'virsh shutdown' failed. There is nothing in the system or libvirt logs. It looks for me that virsh can't properly communicate to the libvirtd. That is still harmless. However ONE already released the VMs IP and assigned it to another VM which of course cause a clash. I wonder if this is intended to work like this?

I was not able to find out why virsh failed and could not reproduce it. The hosts are healthy, but might have a strange problem at the very moment when users requested a VM shutdown or deletion. For example I could manually run the same command ONE was executing later on and it worked. (/var/tmp/one/vmm/kvm/cancel one-20740 n020504 20740 n020504) Any hints to libvirt issue?
