Re: CloudStack DR Approach (not HA)
Hey Geoff, reviving an older thread here but was wondering if you've (shapeblue) have made any headway into the VM/Zone failover enhancement you mentioned in this thread? Sitting in the same boat currently having to look at a replicated SAN + DR/Continuity solution and would love to be able to fly the CS flag as a potential solution. rH On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 3:18 PM, Nux! n...@li.nux.ro wrote: On 26.03.2014 21:08, Geoff Higginbottom wrote: Simon, Agree completely, that's why we are working on bringing Zone HA to CloudStack, for both Enterprise Nd Public Cloud use cases - watch this space I'll be watching.

Re: How to auto start VMs after a crash?
Perhaps I'm not fully awake yet and in need of some java, but is this not achieved with the HA option inside the Service Offering? Once the host and components return the VM's return to their last known state?

What bothers me most is how do I determine which VMs were running before the crash and which were not? Some customers may have stopped VMs to reduce cost or for some technical reason. Any thoughts?

Re: force delete compute host/node?
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.

Public IP Address attached to Instance: Where does it reside?
Hi CS Users. Simple question I think. I've acquired a Public IP and created some port forwarding rules to an instance. (KVM, Advanced Setup). My question is where does this Public IP actually reside?

Re: VM instance cannot aquire IP via DHCP when run on other host with Virtual Router
Just to 2nd Geoff's diagnoses, on the occasions that I've experienced your symptoms it's always ended up being incorrect VLAN configurations across ports and or switches.

Vm's are creating with virtual router in host1 and able to acquire IP address. But the issue is when we migrate the VM to host2 the vm instance cannot aquire IP from virtual router which is located in host1. Exact Issue: when vm and virtual router separated between 2 hosts the DHCP request is not passing to from 1 host to another host. Note: - 1.Both xenservers and cloudstack server are configured in the same vlan. 2.Xenservers physical nic's is configured as trunk port in physical switch and allowed to pass all guest vlan traffics. 3.Configured correct traffic label in cloudstack physical network setup and same has been synced with xenserver's .
