<p class="MsoNormal">Hallo all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m currently unable to import/activate VM due to error above.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It has been a long series of unfortunate events.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Long story short:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- VM running on storage on iscsi failing disks<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- put storage and server in maint. Shut down server<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- restart server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- server has a misconfiguration on lvm/multipath rules (not due to ovirt)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- put storage and server active<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- cluster goes down. Put storage in maintenance again. Detached storage from cluster (ach! That was unfortunate).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- cluster now ok. Storage ok. Activate storage.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- trying to import VM. Ovirt replies with error in subject and attached.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">How can I recover from this situation?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It would be great to recover the entire VM, but I’m more interested in disks which are in unregistered state than VM itself.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you all<o:p></o:p></p>
