[ovirt-users] vms in paused state

yes they are still saying "paused" state.
No, bouncing libvirt didn't help.

I noticed the errors about the ISO domain. Didn't think that was related.
I have been migrating a lot of VMs to ovirt lately, and recently added 
another node.
Also had some problems with /etc/exports for a while, but I think those 
issues are all resolved.


Last "unresponsive" message in vdsm.log was:

vdsm.log.49.xz:jsonrpc.Executor/0::WARNING::*2016-04-21* 
11:00:54,703::vm::5067::virt.vm::(_setUnresponsiveIfTimeout) 
vmId=`b6a13808-9552-401b-840b-4f7022e8293d`::monitor become unresponsive 
(command timeout, age=310323.97)
vdsm.log.49.xz:jsonrpc.Executor/0::WARNING::2016-04-21 
11:00:54,703::vm::5067::virt.vm::(_setUnresponsiveIfTimeout) 
vmId=`5bfb140a-a971-4c9c-82c6-277929eb45d4`::monitor become unresponsive 
(command timeout, age=310323.97)



Thanks.
