I was able to restart engine and the two hosts. All restarted again. Now the effect to run the VM is that it remains in paused state - start VM (about 21:54 today) it starts and goes into paused mode (arrow icon near VM)

you see that apparently the execute action terminates at 21:54 but the VM maintains paused state. - if I try other actions on the same VM there is no message preventing me from that.... and it stays in paused mode see several attempt actions to solve situation - at 21:58 host becomes unreponsive from the gui, no network ping from engine and if I go into its console I see the login prompt but not able to connect... - power off ovnode01 icon near VM becomes now question mark (?) - power on ovnode01 vm goes into stop mode (red square) ovnode01 joins again cluster vdsm log in gzip format starting today before start of vm https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvXzY2eEcwR0VXazQ/edit?usp=sharing engine.log in gzip format https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwoPbcrMv8mvU1RuLVRVYVZ0SXM/edit?usp=sharing PS: at the moment no fenging action set up.
