Hi Thomas, I had a similar scenario (albeit not a crashed SS Server). My SS is using NFS, server went down due to FC failure.
1. Confirm that the SS is online and reachable - Test with external mount etc. 2. Check out https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/SSVM,+templates,+Secondary+storage+troubleshooting for additional troubleshooting steps Hope this helps.

My Storage server crashed last night and my SSVM was destroyed automatically. 2. After resolving the hardware issues, I find that my systemvm template is in status "Timeout waiting for response from storage host". My cloudstack setup: Mgmnt server: CS 4.5.2/Centos 6.7 Hypervisors: Xenserver 6.2 Primary storage: iSCSI Has anyone recovered from this sort of failure before? How do I resolve this issue? -- best wishes, Thomas Joseph
