Hi CloudStackers, I am using CloudPlatform 4.5.0 and XenServer 6.2.0
I was initiated volume download process at ROOT volume but due to file size i got time out exception error *Unable to Serialize: Job is cancelled as it has been blocking others for too long* *After the exception i did below steps:* 1. Changed some parameters in Global Settings to with hold the time to complete download process in order to prevent time out exception for future (because i have initiated volume download process again). 2. Restarted management service to effect changes which i changed in Global Settings. 3. Before re-initiating volume download process, I had changed state entry to 'Ready' of the desired volume in the Cloud Database *volumes *table,because the state of the volume was not changed from 'migrating' state after job failed. So for to see download volume button on desired volume to re-initiate volume download process. But it got failed with error "*Failed to copy the volume from the source primary storage pool to secondary storage*" 4. Later when checked at cloud *volume store ref *table i saw that status of entry is still in "Creating" state. So i just deleted this entire row from the table. But got the same error when initiated volume download process : 'Failed to copy the volume from the source primary storage pool to secondary storage' 5. So that later i was removed .vhd (previously downloaded) file manually from the volumes directory in secondary storage. 6. then i succeeded in re-initiating volume download process and it is downloading now. *Here my question is,* a) Does all the steps which i have taken were true or not? b) If job failed like the above error which i mentioned, should i wait for some time to cleanup all the jobs by CloudStack automatically to re-initiate job? c) If the job failed with this type of timeout exception, does CloudStack runs job in back ground irrespective of exceptions? because i have seen that after this error exception the size of the .vhd file in volume directory of secondary storage is keep on increasing.So i thought the job was running in background after these type of timeout exceptions, am i right? Could any one please post your valuable recommendations on this scenario and much appreciation for your answers on my questions. Regards, Anil.
