Hi,
I found workaround for this situation. There is a possibility to
change the VM status manually in database:
update vm_dynamic set status=0 where
vm_guid='1d5342a3-9375-49c5-bf2a-2bd444d41d09';
@oVirt developers
It seems that in some situations, VM with'unknown' status has no
chances to change state. When all hosts in data center are up and the
VM is not attached to any host it's a dead end. In this particular
situation oVirt engine administrator can't perform any actions on
"lost" VM. Is any way to handle this case without database access?
the state transition in this case is the engine responsibility and not
the user. its done by monitoring all VMs on all Hosts periodically.
Whats more interesting is how have you got to that situation and if its
worth a bug please be kind to report it.
Best regards,
Piotr
