Hi guys, I'm trying to setup the simplest yet safest way of protecting my guests during an unexpected power outage. If I'm running ovirt with 3 hosts, and the ovirt-engine machine as well as the hosts have SNMP UPS monitoring software installed and configured to shutdown if the UPS starts running out of power, what would happen to the guests when the hosts commence the shutdown sequence caused by the UPS software? The ovirt-engine would also be configured to shutdown during the outage. Would the guests try to migrate to another host (despite all of the hosts commencing the shutdown)? Would the guests be paused? What is the recommended practice to safely protect the VM's ? Thank you! Regards. Neil Wilson.
