Re: [Users] oVirt Forgot About a VM's Disks, NICs, etc.

Hi, A user reported to me today that their VM was offline. I checked the oVirt portal and sure enough it was down. Strangely though, the disks and NICs I configured for this VM are missing from the portal and, as such, the machine refuses to boot. I can't seem to find anything relating to the VM in the {libvirt, vdsm, engine} logs, even by it's ovirt shell-derived UUID and even after un-xz'ing them. I am the only person with the admin credentials to oVirt. I've been running oVirt 3.0 on Fedora 16 for the past year, which is clearly out of date, with basically no problems at all (which is why I've resisted upgrading). My last boot was about 47 days ago. My hypervisors are all Fedora as well with locally configured storage. I suspect the virtual machine's data and even state remain in the storage domain, even if the database forgot about them. Please help me restore this VM to its running state, if possible. I can provide any system information you request fairly quickly. In a maybe-related note, I've been working on an ntpd problem, which caused some time sync problems across the oVirt environment.
