I reinstalled the hosts

step:
1) create new host  > I selected srv-02
2) host created

1) create new host  > I selected srv-03
2) host created


and noticed two things :

1) I tried now, to remove the remaining VMs , but the error was the same : Cannot remove VM. VM is attached to a VM-Pool.

2) I can run theses VMs . That is, I can remove the host and reinsert again without VM problems.
2.1)  And another detail: these VMs are thin/dependent.

All others VMs that I was able to remove was the type clone/independent.

What happens with this thin type provisioning?

hello

what is the correct procedure to remove VMs and Hosts? 

I know the right way is to remove VMs first then remove your Host,

but I generate 20 VMs, just for testing, and I want to remove either the host who hosts this VMs

Environment:

3 servers:

srv-01 = engine , vdsm

srv-02 = vdsm  ,  spm, lots of VMs

srv-03 = vdsm , lots of VMs

I removed 2 hosts of my ovirt-engine

steps:

1) select host and put on maintenance

2) stop all VMs 

3) remove host

But in VM tab I can see all VMs and can not remove .

steps

1) select VM and click on remove

 Are you sure you want to remove the following items?

- pvm0203-2

Remove Disk(s)

2) click ok

Operation Canceled

Error while executing action:

pvm0203-2:

    Cannot remove VM. VM is attached to a VM-Pool.

What really happens here?  Where is this files located to remove manually? 

thanks
