The way HA works in Cloudstack is it reads the hypervisor report, so if your 
kvm hosts says it’s working, Cloudstack wouldn’t do anything, despite being 
frozen.

Cloudstack manages the provisioning of the VMs at the host. How the VM behaves 
is dependent on the hardware and hypervisor (libvirt), unfortunately I cannot 
relate this issue to Cloudstack, especially no errors/exceptions hound in logs. 
Sounds like a libvirt issue that you’re hitting or some hardware related 
problem..

Thanks,
Bobby.

Subject: VM Randomly Freezing

Hi Guys

Any help will be appreciated, my VMs on my KVM hyp (Almalinux 8) randomly 
freezes. It does not happen with all of them at once but at least once a week 
one VM randomly freezes. It does not respond to console nor can I check 
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/i-2-118-VM.log in the KVM there is nothing. I also check 
cloudstack and agent logs and I am not seeing anything obvious. I then 
investigate the VM too. There too I see nothing journalctl only has the latest 
boot information once the VM is forced reboot via Cloudstack UI, which is the 
only way I can bring it up again.

What's also weird, I have Ha enabled for all my VMs it works when I for example 
shutdown the VM inside the VM then Ha bring it up again. But in this case, Ha 
doesn't seem to detect the VM is in a "frozen" state to reboot it.

If anyone has had a similar experience before, I will appreciate any advice to 
help troubleshoot this, please.
