GitHub user gusmef added a comment to the discussion: VM HA not working when there's an issue with vm restart
Hi @kiranchavala , the kernel panic was triggered in the exact same way you did it "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" Here's the requested setting: <img width="1275" height="89" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ec539fc5-4420-43e2-84ad-f1ec9f5f5ebd" /> To clarify, the issue is not that HA fails to trigger; the logs clearly show it attempting to restart the VM on another host. The actual problem is that after the first attempt fails, the process stops after the second try and gives up entirely, even though the VM remains offline. ``` 2026-06-29 10:02:54,852 INFO [c.c.h.HighAvailabilityManagerExtImpl] (HA-Worker-0:[ctx-fce5735e, work-17]) (logid:f2990b6c) VM VM instance {"id":1483,"instanceName":"i-2-1483-VM","state":"Stopped","type":"User","uuid":"1f7afd4f-398b-4789-ae14-73d28903f036"} has been changed. Current State = Stopped Previous State = Stopped last updated = 20 previous updated = 17 2026-06-29 10:02:54,852 INFO [c.c.h.HighAvailabilityManagerExtImpl] (HA-Worker-0:[ctx-fce5735e, work-17]) (logid:f2990b6c) Completed work HAWork[17-HA-1483-Stopped-Scheduled]. Took 2/5 attempts. ``` Let me know if you need anything else or if there's something you think i'm doing wrong GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/discussions/13729#discussioncomment-17810556 ---- This is an automatically sent email for [email protected].
