Hi Ruben,

OK thanks for the reply.

That is what happened.

We use ceph for datastorage. So I guess if I delete the VM the image will be deleted as well? Also I do not quit follow how the changes will be preserved and the resources, the disk is not persistent.

Thanks,

Hi Karsten

Unfortunately there is no way to manually recover a VM from FAILED
state. I assume that in you where  trying to migrate (not livemigrate) a
VM and it failed to move the files from onehost to another one. That
left your VM in failed.

In that case you can:

1.- Delete and recreate the VM. This will clean the VM state  (i.e. any
disk change for some datastores. Note, if you are using a shared FS the
changes will be preserved) and it will keep any allocated resource (i.e.
IP's persistent images...)

2.- If you want to keep the disk changes in a "non-shared" datastore,
you can manually register the VM disk image (.e.g. copying it from the
node) and start a new VM based on that rescued disk.

Cheers

Ruben

    Hi,

    I have a VM in FAILED state do to a migration attempt that failed.

    I have started the VM again manually however I need to tell one that
    it is running on a host and that it is not in a failed state any more.

    Can that be done ?

    Thanks,
    - Karsten
