Unable to put Host into Maintenance mode

I have a host that is currently reporting down with NO VM's on it or associated with it. However when I attempt to put it into maintenance mode, I get the following error: Host hv-01 cannot change into maintenance mode - not all Vms have been migrated successfully.

I know I'll catch heat for this, but by "old" you mean like December of 2015? Just trying put things into perspective. Thus it goes with the ancient and decrepit Red Hat Ent. 7.1 days, right? I know, I know, FOSS... the only thing worse than running today's code is running yesterday's. We still run a 3.5 oVirt in our dev lab, btw. But I would not have set that up (not that I would have recommended oVirt to begin with), preferring 3.4 at the time. I would have waited for 3.6. With that said, 3.5 isn't exactly on the "stable line" to Red Hat Virtualization, that was 3.4 and then 3.6. Some people can't afford major (downtime) upgrades every 3-6 months or so. But, arguably, maybe we shouldn't be running oVirt. Maybe it's not designed for "production". I guess oVirt isn't really for production by definition, but many of us are doing so. So... not really a "ding" against oVirt developers, it's just a rapidly moving target with the normal risks that come with that. People just need to understand that. And with that said, the fact that many of us are running those ancient decrepit evil versions of oVirt in production today, is actually a testimony to its quality. Good job devs!

It’s not about using it, rather I was referring to the fact that we stopped developing it, stopped fixing even critical security issues. Same for 3.6, and 4.0. I know, I know, FOSS... the only thing worse than running today's code is running yesterday's. Well, there is only a limited amount of resources you can devote to actively maintain branches/releases We typically do that for two versions, covering roughly 1,5 years We still run a 3.5 oVirt in our dev lab, btw. But I would not have set that up (not that I would have recommended oVirt to begin with), preferring 3.4 at the time. I would have waited for 3.6. With that said, 3.5 isn't exactly on the "stable line" to Red Hat Virtualization, that was 3.4 and then 3.6. Some people can't afford major (downtime) upgrades every 3-6 months or so. That’s why we do not really require it and still support 3.6 cluster compat in 4.2, so that does give you longer time to update. And even the cluster upgrades are rolling, we do not require any real downtime other than for rebooting individual VMs and some spare capacity to migrate workloads to during host upgrade. But, arguably, maybe we shouldn't be running oVirt. Maybe it's not designed for "production". I guess oVirt isn't really for production by definition, but many of us are doing so. So... not really a "ding" against oVirt developers, it's just a rapidly moving target with the normal risks that come with that. People just need to understand that. Absolutely. People should understand the difference between a GA and a zstream update 6 months later. Every sw has bugs. But I would argue we do actually have quite a long supported versions, when compared to a $random project. And then yes, we do have a longer support for Red Hat Virtualization, but again in general I would doubt you can find many similar commercial products being _actively_ supported for more than few years And with that said, the fact that many of us are running those ancient decrepit evil versions of oVirt in production today, is actually a testimony to its quality.

So - to get this back on track - I was able to remove the host entirely from HostedEngine using ovirt-shell - but now cannot add it back for the same reason as not being able to add ANY hosts to this cluster (there is another email thread on this): *** *Mark Steele* CIO / VP Technical Operations | TelVue Corporation TelVue - We Share Your Vision 16000 Horizon Way, Suite 100 | Mt.

Have you tried right clicking on the host, and select 'Confirm Host has been rebooted' that is basically telling the engine that the host is fenced, and you should be able to put it into maintenance mode. It will ask confirmation but we know the host has been rebooted and nothing is running.

Host hv-01 cannot change into maintenance mode - not all Vms have been migrated successfully. Consider manual intervention:
stopping/migrating
Vms: <UNKNOWN> (User: admin)
I am running oVirt Engine Version: 3.5.0.1-1.el6
that’s a really old version….
first confirm there is no running vm on that host (log in there, look for qemu processes) if not, it’s likely just engine issue, somewhere it lost track of what’s actually running there - in that case you could try to restart the host, restart engine. that should help

Using the ovirt-shell, I find that there are no vms assigned to this host: [oVirt shell (connected)]# list vms --query "host=hv-01" So I'm now looking to see where the host is reporting back to the engine that it has migrations in progress. Anyone know where to look for that? Thanks! *** *Mark Steele* CIO / VP Technical Operations | TelVue Corporation TelVue - We Share Your Vision 16000 Horizon Way, Suite 100 | Mt.

Question: Can I restart the HostedEngine with running VM's without negatively impacting them?

Michal,
Thank you for the response.
- there are no qemu processes running - the server has been rebooted several times - the engine has been rebooted several times
The issue persists. I'm not sure where to look next.
Have you tried right clicking on the host, and select 'Confirm Host has been rebooted' that is basically telling the engine that the host is fenced, and you should be able to put it into maintenance mode. It will ask confirmation but we know the host has been rebooted and nothing is running.
