Hi,

there is any way of ending al reservations and forcing the management node
to deploy new virtual machines  on ESXi host?

Thanks.

Hi António,

There is not a way to delete existing reservations through the GUI other than 
each user deleting their own reservations.  However, if a VM does not have any 
reservations on it, you can remove the VM from the VM host under Virtual Hosts 
to have it unloaded from the host.  Then, when you add the VM back, it will 
not be loaded until a reservation is made for the VM or it is reloaded under 
Edit Computer Profiles.

If you want to delete *ALL* reservations, you can set request.stateid to 1 (1 
is the deleted state) for all entries with the following sql statement (USE 
WITH CAUTION!):

UPDATE request set stateid = 1;

This will function the same as if every user clicked the delete button for all 
of their reservations, causing vcld to pick them up, end the reservations, and 
reload the VMs.
