Wednesday I wanted to update my oVirt 3.5 hypervisor.

Afterwards, all the VMs could be started again. Some hours later my monitoring system registered some unresponsive hosts, I had a look in the oVirt interface, 3 of the VMs were in the state “not responding”, marked by a question mark. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I tried to shut down the VMs, but oVirt wasn’t able to do so.
