Thank you for help Strahil,
But although there where 4 images with a status 4 in the database, and did
the update query on them, same bloody message, and vms wont start.
Eventually, ive decided to delete the vms, and do a from scratch
installation. Persistance openshift vms are still ok, so i should be able
to reuse the volumes somehow.
This is why sometimes a subscription is good, when a lack of knowledge on
my side is happening. Production systems should not rely on upstreams
unless there is a strong understanding of the product.
Again, thank you so much for trying helping me out !
Cheers,
Leo
