Hi again,

I'm trying to write a systemd-script (for CentOS7) in order to automatically put the host in "maintenance" on shutdown and to activate it after boot.
I wrote a python-script that to that and it works so that I can start it and see the host in "maintenance" and having all VMs migrated.

Unfortunately I can't call this script on shutdown/reboot and wait until all VMs are migrated and the host is in maintenance.

I don't think this will work, since you must put the host into maintenance, and wait until all vms were migrated before you reboot the host.

All this can be done only by controlling engine, not from the host that is going to shutdown.

If you want to trigger this from the host itself, I would write an ovirt-shutdown tool, ask engine to put the host into maintenance, wait until all vms migrate, and the invoke the real shutdown command.

I guess it would be more useful to run this tool not on the host you want to reboot but on another machine.

It may be possible to somehow get systemd to use this tool instead of the shutdown command, but I don't think it is a good idea. This will make your host fail to shutdown if your tool is buggy.

Maybe ask on systemd mailing list about this.

Here my script:

[Unit]
Description=oVirt interface for managing host
After=remote-fs.target vdsmd.service multipathd.service libvirtd.service time-sync.target iscsid.service rpcbind.service supervdsmd.service sanlock.service vdsm-network.service
Wants=remote-fs.target vdsmd.service multipathd.service libvirtd.service time-sync.target iscsid.service rpcbind.service supervdsmd.service sanlock.service vdsm-network.service

[Service]
Type=simple
RemainAfterExit=yes
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/ovirt-maintenance.sh active
ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/ovirt-maintenance.sh maintenance
KillMode=none

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Could someone help me and say what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks a lot

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
