Can anyone explain about this behaviour ? Or Is this an issue ? Note : I am using Ovirt 4.0. Thanks, ~Rohit _______________________________________________ Users mailing listUsers@ovirt.orghttp://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hi, If a host is powered off and if powermanagment is enabled engine will fence the host and restarts it. During this process host residing on the vm will be shutdown and will be restarted on another node. All the events can be seen in the engine UI. Hope you have not missed to enable power management on the hosts. with out enabling power management even if the vm is marked to be Highly available it will not be. Second thing to check for is if the vm has guest-agent installed on it. If the vm does not have guest-agent installed then it wont be restarted on different host.
