taskcleaner.sh only clears tasks form the engine database.
did you check your engine logs to see if this task is running?
vdsm-client from node (hypervisor):

[root@infn-vm05 ~]# vdsm-client Task  getStatus taskID=fdcf4d1b-82fe-49a6-b233-323ebe568f8e
{
    "message": "running job 1 of 1",
    "code": 0,
    "taskID": "fdcf4d1b-82fe-49a6-b233-323ebe568f8e",
    "taskResult": "",
    "taskState": "running"
}
[root@infn-vm05 ~]#
[root@infn-vm05 ~]# vdsm-client Task  getInfo taskID=fdcf4d1b-82fe-49a6-b233-323ebe568f8e
{
    "verb": "prepareMerge",
    "id": "fdcf4d1b-82fe-49a6-b233-323ebe568f8e"
}

it's a task that is executed during a snapshot merge (removal of a snapshot), do you have any running snapshot removals?
How Can I check it ?
Thanks
Enrico
if not you can stop and clear the task using vdsm-client

it's seems to be task id   fdcf4d1b-82fe-49a6-b233-323ebe568f8e  is still running.

Any other ideas ?

Thank you so much.
Best Regards
Enrico

Why would you do that ?
Just put the host in maintenance and the system will evacuate all VMs and another host will be promoted as SPM . 
Once the host is in maintenance - you can proceed with your tasks.

P.S: Don't forget to remove the mainteance mode once you are over.

Hi Strahil,
I did not tell you that this is the first thing I tried but it didn't work because SPM can't be activated in another host,
then I tried to manually move SPM without success.
Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot !

Best Regards

Enrico
