[Xen-API] RE: XCP / xenAPI shows no vms but vm is still running
 
Hi, 
  
You should only use ‘reset-power-state’ on VMs which
have failed e.g. if the host has failed. If the VMs are still running then you
shouldn’t do this – if you start a VM twice then there is a high
chance of disk corruption. 
  
Cheers, 
Dave

Subject: XCP / xenAPI shows no vms but vm is still running 
 
 
  
Hi 
 
I tried the case when the node - said "P" is unreachable by
interface down - so, we restart Vms of that machine to another machine by 
doing reset-power-state first and call vms to start at other machine said
node "A" 
 
However when the problem node "P"  is up again - xenAPI
shows that there is no Vm running on it-   Which is wrong, Vms should be
running. 
I tested this by stop the vm on "A"  to start that vm on the
"P" - "P" complains that  
 
[root@quindecim ~]# xe vm-start vm=ken-debian-vm-2 on=quindecim 
The server failed to handle your request, due to an internal error.  The
given message may give details useful for debugging the problem. 
message: Failure("The VDI
57a82bd4-a889-42ff-94d3-479a2618f2ec is already attached in RW mode; it can't
be attached in RO mode!") 
 
After I reboot the node, vm can start.  So, is there any way I can detect
that VMs are currently running on the "P" problem machine? 
 
after the Vms relocated to other machine, info from XenAPI showed that that
machine has no VMs ( which is incorrect!) 
 
Thanks
