andrijapanicsb commented on issue #3720: VM stopped/crashing while Migration 
with Maintenance Mode (KVM)
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/3720#issuecomment-558860214
 
 
   I believe the biggest problem I saw was VM crashing due to qemu bugs/issue 
(i.e. recently saw this one “qemu-kvm general protection error in 
libtcmalloc.so.4.4.5”) – can’t speak for other issues, since I don’t recall 
having them with ACS 4.5/4.8 with Ubuntu 14.04 (qemu 2.0 initially, later 
upgraded to 2.5)
   
   If not mistaken, there is indeed a behavior that if there is no enough 
capacities in the cluster (test with a single KVM host in the cluster), the VMs 
will be stopped – and that is a thing to change in my opinion. Maintenance 
should fail and host should be in ErrorInMaintenance mode.
   If you want to do maintenance of that host, put the storage into the 
maintenance mode and you are good to go. Even better, make an additional 
parameter like “forceMaintenance” which will indeed stop VMs in order to reach 
Maintenance mode. Othewise will simply be in ErrorInMaintenance.
   
   I really don’ recall having issues with 5 VMs/agent threads – and I’ve been 
doing a lot of maintenance with couple of hunders of VMs 2-3 years ago (ACS 
4.8). This one should be reproduced first.
