[jira] [Created] (CLOUDSTACK-3367) When one primary storage fails, all XenServer hosts get rebooted, killing all VMs, even those not on this primary storage.

France created CLOUDSTACK-3367:
----------------------------------

             Summary: When one primary storage fails, all XenServer hosts get rebooted, killing all VMs, even those not on this primary storage.
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-3367
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-3367
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Management Server, XenServer
    Affects Versions: 4.1.0, 4.2.0
         Environment: CentOS 6.3, XenServer 6.0.2 + all hotfixes, CloudStack 4.1.0
            Reporter: France


As the title says: if only one of the primary storages fails, all XenServer hosts get rebooted one by one. Because i have many primary storages, which are/were running fine with other VMs, rebooting XenServer Hipervisor is an overkill. Please disable this or implement just stopping/killing the VMs running on that storage and try to re-attach that storage only.

Problem was reported on the mailing list, as well as a workaround for XenServer. So i'm not the only one hit by this "bug/feature". Workaround for now is as follows:

1. Modify /opt/xensource/bin/xenheartbeat.sh on all your Hosts, commenting out the two entries which have "reboot -f"
2. Identify the PID of the script  - pidof -x xenheartbeat.sh
3. Restart the Script  - kill <pid>
4. Force reconnect Host from the UI,  the script will then re-launch on reconnect
