Hey Alexander, I did those exact steps roughly two days ago...the host is still stuck in preparing for maintenance mode. Confirming the host has been rebooted seems to have no effect.
Any other ideas? Some way to hit the Ovirt Database and manipulate the value for what state the host is in? Remove the host entirely from the back-end database? -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Wels [mailto:aw...@redhat.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 6, 2017 9:29 AM To: users@ovirt.org Cc: Brandon.Markgraf <brandon.markg...@target.com>; Anthony.Fillmore <anthony.fillm...@target.com> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt: Host Removal Question On Monday, June 5, 2017 4:10:54 PM EDT Brandon.
