Is the VM showing as locked? You could try to manually unlocking it.
I
did this in a test environment a while back with some success after a vm
was stuck in a "locked" state. Of course the gui and engine should handle
most of this for you, manually mucking around the internal DB can cause
some pretty serious issues if you are not careful...
sudo su postgres
psql -d engine -U postgres
SELECT vm_guid, vm_name FROM vm_static WHERE vm_name='*VM_Name_Here*';
This should return a string such as: "0ec20854-e1ca-4e49-be87-
a6cd36d40c18"
Reset the lock:
update vm_dynamic SET status=0 where vm_guid='0ec20854-e1ca-4e49-
be87-a6cd36d40c18';
I'd prefer to avoid direct manage of the rdbms...
As it happened on Friday, after running again the command
PGPASSWORD=... /usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/unlock_entity.sh -t
all -u engine
now the gui after some time shows no active task
but the vm still shows as locked and in the event pane I only have the
message
Snapshot '13-11-2017-16-30-Danilo' creation for VM 'apex' was initiated
by
user1@internal-authz.
but no message about its correct completion
This is my disks' subtab situation for the vm, where it seems all ok:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tF3VdA8gzMVvtn2x4HTKOmltRmUR7cTG/view?us...
And this the snapshots' subtab where it seems all ok:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qbEhdS6eOZL-f8y5xCnuc_4_HsYM4mAa/view?us...
But the VM has the lock symbol in side of itself.
Any guidance appreciated, both to solve the problem and to understand if
the snapshot is consistent, as a user should to changes to the VM with a
chance to have to come back
