Re: [one-users] how to recover failed vms
Hi Jhon, Your description is very accurate, and I have just one comment: Instead of manually executing the 'virsh create' command, you can execute 'onevm restart' [1]. This will have the same effect, the hypervisor deployment command is executed without going through the prolog state. The files currently in the host are used, not copied again from the image repository, preserving the disk changes. Cheers [1] http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.2:vm_guide_2#onevm_command -- Carlos Martín, MSc Project Engineer OpenNebula - The Open-source Solution for Data Center Virtualization www.OpenNebula.org | cmar...@opennebula.org | @OpenNebulahttp://twitter.com/opennebulacmar...@opennebula.org 2012/3/12 Jhon Masschelein jhon.masschel...@sara.nl Hi list, In you mail, you mix FAILED and UNKNOWN. When a VM goes to FAILED, it pretty much always means that it was not able to deploy due to some error. The log file would give more information. Look for things like inaccessible disks or networks, bad template variables, etc.. As far as I know, a FAILED VM should never go to READY state without resubmission. Please correct me if I am wrong anybody. UNKNOWN state is different; this happens when oned does not get any monitoring info from the VM for a while. This could be a result of the system and or libvirt being very busy or maybe network problems. Once monitoring resumes, this usually result in an UNKNOWN state going back to READY. Of course, if for some reason the KVM or XEN domain process died, monitoring will never resume. (Not sure if you are using KVM or XEN, the following is based on KVM but I think XEN is relatively similar.) For example, if you have a node crash, the KVM process will of course have died, the monitoring will stop and the VM will end up in UNKNOWN state. When the crashed node is rebooted, you can recover the VM by booting it again. In the /var/lib/one/$VMID/images directory for the VM, you will find a deployment.X file and the images files. You can simply use virsh create deployment.X (replace X with the highest number you find in the directory). This will restart the VM. After a little while, opennebula will start receiving monitoring info from the restarted VM again and the VM will turn READY. For a FAILED VM, this mostly is not possible because the reason the VM is FAILED is because either the deployment file could not be created, is faulty or the disk images could not be copied. All this is based on my experience with opennebula. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I've looked through it briefly, and my only question is the following: I already have my head-node (front-end) and the cloud-node (worker-node) set up and configured, and I was able to manage (get running, through ONE) the provided ttylinux template from the ONE website. Currently, I am only interested in having a running SUSE-image-based VM instead of this ttylinux VM. So, does this mean that I should be concerned only with the parts related to the guest-node from the KIWI documentation? Yes. What exactly is the scope of the parts related to the head-node and the cloud-node (why would I need such images)? The cloud-node image is useful to allow you to set up a new cloud node in short order, 5 minutes or less. If you just run your own small cloud and you do not plan on adding another cloud node then building an image is overkill. Having the images also has the advantage that they encapsulate the knowledge of how to set up and configure a node (head or cloud). Once you have an image and the need for a new node arises you can just install the image and do not have to go through the whole configuration process again. Also, does KIWI needs to be installed on both the front-end and cloud(worker)-node, or all the commands are done from the latter? KIWI does not need to be installed on the cloud machines at all. KIWI just needs to be installed on some machine that can function as your image build machine.
