Replacing Management Controller
I'm trying to write a procedure to replace the management controller
in case of a failure.
I have set up the replacement server identically (Centos, NICs, Cloudstack).
I then exported the database files (Cloud, Cloud_Usage, MySQL) from the
original
and imported them into the replacement.
Everything seemed to work (templates, Primary, Secondary), except the SSVM
and
the Console Proxy are stuck in "stopping" state. According to the
management-server.log
file, it is detecting the old SSVM is in stopping state and prefers to just
wait and let it resolve
itself, which it never does.
Suggestions?
Warren

Hi Warren,
Go into your new database and run:
Update vm_instances set state = "stopped" where id = #;
# is the is id # in s-#-VM.
Then you have two choices. 1 you can just start it from there and let it
recreate. Or 2. Destroy it and let the cloud rebuild it.
Hope that helps,
Matt
