IIRC when I had that issue (I removed the host physically before removing it from oVirt) I had to do the following: - Right click in the grid on the host, and select confirm host has been rebooted (this is basically you telling oVirt the host has been fenced). - After a while the host should end up as down (or unknown state). - You should be able to select maintaince at that point, this might take a while (timeouts etc). - This should put the host in maintaince and you should be able to remove it then.

Hey Alexander, I did those exact steps roughly two days ago...the host is still stuck in preparing for maintenance mode. Confirming the host has been rebooted seems to have no effect. Any other ideas? Some way to hit the Ovirt Database and manipulate the value for what state the host is in? Remove the host entirely from the back-end database? -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Wels [mailto:awels@redhat.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 6, 2017 9:29 AM To: users@ovirt.org Cc: Brandon.Markgraf <Brandon.Markgraf@target.com>; Anthony.Fillmore <Anthony.Fillmore@target.com> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt: Host Removal Question On Monday, June 5, 2017 4:10:54 PM EDT Brandon.

That should have worked, but if all else fails you can always set the host in maintaince in the database doing this in the engine database: update vds_dynamic set status=2 where vds_id = <id_of_host> you can figure out the id of the host by doing this select vds_id from vds_static where vds_name='<name_of_host>' If you are feeling brave you can combine the two into a single statement, but I would be sure you have the right host before you do that. Then once you have updated the status, you can refresh the webadmin and the host should be in maintenaince mode and you should be able to remove it normally. I would not attempt more manual manipulation of the database than setting the status to 2 (which is maintenaince).

Awesome, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! One last thing - Is there a data dictionary available somewhere for the Ovirt Postgresql DB tables and views? Some way I can view the full schema and understand what data is located where? Documentation online seems very scarce in this regard. Thanks again, I truly appreciate the help!

If there is a task still running (well the database thinks a task is running as obviously the host is gone), you maybe be able to use the taskcleaner.sh utility to clear out the running task. taskcleaner.sh -h will give you all the options. it should be in /share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/taskcleaner.sh

Ok - I was able to get taskcleaner.sh working. I stopped ovirt-engine service, ran the script and cleared out active and zombie tasks. Restarted the engine, put the host into maintenance mode and was FINALLY able to remove it. Thanks a ton for your assistance, it is truly appreciated.
