I'd really like to get at the bottom of this. It does sound like the behavior mentioned in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-5582 but should be long fixed.
One suspect log entry (be unrelated) I noticed is this recurring exception in the manger logs : ERROR [c.c.v.UserVmManagerImpl] (UserVm-ipfetch-3:ctx-d4c44c2b) (logid:16dd70ad) Caught the Exception in VmIpFetchTask Which I guess is caused by the use of an external DHCP so manager fails to determine a running VM IP. Which brings me to my next question.... how is a VM marked for HA actually monitored ?
