Hello all (and happy new year),
(Note: Also reported as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1880251)
Self hosted engine, single node, NFS. Attempted to install CentOS over an existing Fedora VM with one host device (USB printer). Reboot failed, trying to boot from a non-existent CDROM. Tried shutting the VM down, failed. Tried powering off the VM, failed. Dropped cluster to global maintenance, reboot host + engine (was planning to upgrade it anyhow...), VM still stuck.
When trying to power off the VM, the following message can be found the in engine.log: 2020-09-18 07:58:51,439+03 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.StopVmCommand] (EE-ManagedThreadFactory-engine-Thread-42) [7bc4ac71-f0b2-4af7-b081-100dc99b6123] Running command: StopVmCommand internal: false.

My question is simple: Pending a solution to the bug, can I somehow drop the state of the VM? It's currently holding a sizable disk image and a USB device I need (printer).
It would be best to modify the VM as if it should still be running on the host and let the system discover that it's not running there and update the VM accordingly. You can do it by changing the database with: update vm_dynamic set run_on_vds='82f92946-9130-4dbd-8663-1ac0b50668a1' where vm_guid='b411e573-bcda-4689-b61f-1811c6f03ad5';
As it's my private VM cluster, I have no problem dropping the site completely for maintenance.
Thanks,
