Please let me know how i can kill those processes...
There may be a officially blessed method for killing zombie tasks, but my experience is that all you can do is delete them from the database.
The canonical way relies on the /usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/taskcleaner.sh utility. Directly manipulating the DB should be avoided as far as possible.
On the ovirt-engine server, get a psql shell, e.g.,
psql -d engine -U postgres
Data about running tasks are stored in the job table. You might find this query interesting:
select * from job order by start_time desc;
Grab the job_id for the task you want to delete, then use the DeleteJob procedure, e.g.,
select DeleteJob('8424f7a9-2a4c-4567-b528-45bbc1c2534f');
Give the web GUI a minute or so to catch up with you. The tasks should be gone.
