Hi Rakesh, You seem to be doing the right thing. I think what you have encoutered is a bug in prepareForMaintenance API. The host tends to be stuck in that state in some scenarios. Perhaps, when a VM enters an error state. I would advise canceling maintenance mode and examining what states the VMs are in. Ensure there are no unexpected errors on VMs, clean them up manually if needed. Then retry prepare for maintenance mode.
There is an open PR for fixing this issue as well - https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/3425 . While this got sidetracked as we worked on 4.13.0, this will make it in 4.13.1. Kind Regards, Anurag ________________________________ From: Rakesh Venkatesh <www.rakeshv....@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, August 8, 2019 2:09 PM To: users@cloudstack.apache.org <users@cloudstack.apache.org>; d...@cloudstack.apache.org <d...@cloudstack.apache.org> Subject: Querying async job result Hello I want to know what is the best way to query the async job result using queryAsyncJobResult api. According to the documentation in http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/archived-cloudstack-getting-started/en/latest/dev.html , the "jobstatus" of 1 means the command completed but im facing an issue where even though the command is still running, the "jobstatus" is always 1. Im running "prepareHostForMaintenance" command which returns the jobid. When I run queryAsyncJobResult for this jobid, the jobstatus will always be 1 even though the hypervisor is still not in maintenance mode. So can anyone tell me what is the best way to check if the hypervisor is in maintenance mode or not? Im using 4.11 version Below are the result which I get "resourcestate": "PrepareForMaintenance", "jobresultcode": 0, "jobresulttype": "object", "jobstatus": 1, -- Thanks and regards Rakesh venkatesh anurag.awas...@shapeblue.comĀ www.shapeblue.com Amadeus House, Floral Street, London WC2E 9DPUK @shapeblue
