Cannot set storage domain on maintenance

Hi, We're running ovirt-engine-4.1.5.2-1 and we're trying to set one of the storage domains on maintenance in order to remove it, as there's nothing left on it besides some templates. To do so, I open the 'Data Centers' tab, then the 'Storage' subtab, select the storage domain and click on 'Maintenance'. When asked for confirmation I click OK. After that, this error message is shown: Error while executing action: Cannot deactivate Storage while there are running tasks on this Storage. -Please wait until tasks will finish and try again. As far as I know, there are no pending tasks on this storage. The Events tab only shows a movement of a disk which has nothing to do with this storage domain. What can I do to solve this? Thanks. Nicolás

It's not the most elegant or guaranteed to fix your issue, but I've found that running engine-setup again on the hosted-engine server usually cleans up broken and orphaned tasks. Any running VM's will stay up, you'll just briefly loose access to the UI while engine-setup restarts the interface. On 26 September 2017 at 13:36, <nicolas@devels.es> wrote:

Unfortunately it didn't work in this case. I also tried to cleanup entities just in case by running: # PGPASSWORD=... /usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/unlock_entity.sh -t all -u engine select fn_db_unlock_all(); INSERT 0 1 unlock all completed successfully. It seems it clear a hung task but still cannot fix the issue. Thanks anyway. El 2017-09-26 13:44, Maton, Brett escribió:
