Good morning, 

We lost one of our hosts this morning and all of the VM's in that host are in a hung state with a '?' in their status.

The Host itself is powered off due to a failed backplane and is reporting 'Host hv-01 is not responding. It will stay in Connecting state for a grace period of 136 seconds and after that an attempt to fence will be issued.' - that message has been repeating every three minutes. We have tried to manually power cycle the blade but that is not working. 

We are running 3.5.0.1-1.el6

- is there a way to force that host to release it's VM's?
- is there a way to manually move the VM's?

The menu for the VM's only has 'Add' and 'Edit' available.

Best regards,

***
