If you are sure that the host (node) running the vm has reset, and the vm is no longer running on that host you can select the host and manually "Confirm host has been rebooted" (from the webadmin, not sure exactly how to do it from ovirt-shell).

I have a similar situation where a node was reset while a VM was running on it. Now the VM is in an unknown state and I cannot stop/start etc. I also cannot put the node into maintenance mode as it thinks it still has running VM’s [oVirt shell (connected)]# list vms --query "id=807593a5-8667-4265-a0ab-b3e37feb1fc1" --show-all | grep status status-state : unknown [oVirt shell (connected)]# action vm 807593a5-8667-4265-a0ab-b3e37feb1fc1 stop ============================ ERROR ==================================== status: 409 reason: Conflict detail: Cannot stop VM.

Once the server came back up, 3 VMs that didn’t finish migrating have been stuck in status “Unknown.” Vdsclient doesn’t list any of the vms on either host. Qemu doesn’t have them listed as mounted on either host. Action vm start and stop result in “Status: 409”. The disks for all 3 VMs are listed as green in the WebAdmin. I’ve tried “action vm <name> start” “action vm <name> stop” “update vm <name> --status-state down” no joy. They remain in “unknown.” _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
