Hi Karli,
I don't know about reminding the engine of forgotten actions and sounds like the
failure can originate from all sort of problems...
This means I don't have a good solution, but I do have "a" solution.
Go to the host and manually remoove the VM:
If vdsClient is installed do "vdsClient 0 list table" and then "vdsClient 0
destroy <UUID>"
If not the use virsh to list the vms "virsh list" then using the id/name remove
it "virsh destroy <id/name>"
Then go to Ovirt DB and delete (cascade) the VM from vm_static
But remember that as always touching the inner working directly might be risky and prone
to errors (no way to recover if you deleted the wrong VM)
So use with caution.
I hope this helps,
Noam.

Hello everyone!
I think perhaps this question passed completly unnoticed so I´m trying to resend it to
perhaps get some attention.

Hi,
yesterday I issued a remove of a Guest and then immediately afterwards engine started
complaining about sync errors between database and storage metadata. To my surprise, both
of my two data stores were marked as master in their storage metadata files. I had to
change "MASTER_VERSION" and "ROLE", then tail the vdsm log on a Host
and watch it complain that the checksum is wrong and how it is ${X} but should be ${Y}
according to it´s logic, and copy/paste tbe correct checksum into storage metadata file as
well. This had to be done for both data domains, and when done, I have one
"Master"- and one "Regular" domain that works and equals what´s in the
database.
The problem is that engine now apparently has forgotten about my Guest that it was
supposed to remove before all of this... The operation is still listed in
"Tasks", so it´s not quite finished yet. Since it´s changed state to
"hourglass" and status "Image locked", I can´t click for removal again
either...
Is there any way to "remind" engine of a job not done?
