VM's not in host report...turning themselves off.

[Dave Dunaway <da...@gmail.com>]

Anyone come across this log message:

-VM is now missing from host report but we detected that it might be
migrated to other host by vCenter

In our case we had a host recently go into maintenance mode with asyncjobs
left running for VM's on that host. We set the asyncjobs to 'Done' and the
machine boots but then gets turned off again 5 mins later. The log keeps on
mentionning this "host report" but I can't find any reference to it
anywhere.

Anyone experience this before or have an idea of what might be going on?


Thanks!

Dave.

Here is when we've seen this and how we addressed it:

1) stop the VM and CloudStack and note down the instance id of the VM, 
i.e. if its something like i-34-987-VM, 987 is instance_id
2) backup your mysql db
3) delete eveything with your instance id in cloud.op_ha_work table
* you should see a job stuck there that should not be current based on 
time stamp
4) start cloudstack
5) start vm


Also noticed disabling vmware's HA once the cluster, once helped to 
address this issue - but i think it was coincidence more than a solution.

Hi Dave,

If the CS does not find the vm in the power report(vm states) it gets from the hypervisor then we see those messages in the log.
