Hi,

I'm running ovirt-4.0.6 on EL7.3.

I've got a stuck VM (Windows 10) that I'm trying to restart.
Unfortunately it's "up" enough that ovirt is trying to perform a
soft-shutdown, but it's not up enough to complete the task.  If I login
to the ovirt admin portal as the admin, select shutdown, I see the
following engine log messages before I get an event "Shutdown of VM
<vm-name> failed.":

2017-05-04 11:23:27,774 INFO  [org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector] (org.ovirt.thread.pool-6-thread-14) [3f629ae6] Correlation ID: 3f629ae6, Job ID: 1f5275cd-d2fe-44d5-a1cf-d1920e3f3378, Call Stack: null, Custom Event ID: -1, Message: VM shutdown initiated by admin at internal-authz on VM win10-64 (Host: ovirt-0).

So, how can I get out of this situation?  How can I force-powerdown this
VM so I can reboot it?

Thanks,
