Hi,
I attached one host node in my engine. Because it is the only one
node, it is automatically the SPM node. And it used to run well in my
engine. Yesterday, some errors happened in the network work of the host
node. That made the node become "unresponsive" in the engine. I am
sure the network errors are fixed and want to bring the node back to
life now. However, I found that the only one node could not be
"confirm as host been rebooted" and could not be set into the
maintenance mode. The reason given there is no active host in the
datacenter and SPM can not enter into maintenance mode. It seems that
it fell into a logic loop here. Losting network can be quite common in
developing environment even in production environment, I think we should
have a way to address this problem on how to repair a host node
encountering network down for a while.
