force delete compute host/node?

[ronald higgins <ro...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I've had a KVM host that I've had to rebuild. However because it wasn't
removed from Cloudstack before rebuilding I'm having an issue removing it
so i can reinsert it now that it's rebuilt.

CS 4.2.1 across the board.

The error I'm getting in the UI and similarly in the MGMT logs are:

"cannot be deleted as it is not in maintenance mode. Either put the host
into maintenance or perform a forced deletion."

Does anyone know the procedure to "force delete" the host, a quick google
didn't return any result. I'm guessing it's going to be a SQL delete
somewhere.

Regards

Ronald

Hi Marty. Deletion of the Host via the infrastructure panel results in the
error:

"Host 1328586a-4c6e-46fb-a196-37ba36bbb3f7 cannot be deleted as it is not
in maintenance mode. Either put the host into maintenance or perform a
forced deletion."

The Management server still thinks the SSVM is running on it... which it
isn't, which I think is playing a part in this.

So if there is a way to forcibly remove the host any guidace would be
appreciated.

Hi Ronald,

Is there any reason you can't put this node into maintenance mode via
the infrastructure panel?
As far as I remember if there isn't anything assigned to it, it
_should_ happily work.
