what happens to the status of the host when you right click on the
host and specify you confirm it was shutdown?

I'm having this same issue. Confirming the host is shut down doesn't make a difference.

I'm seeing lots of "Failed to GlusterHostRemoveVDS, error = Unexpected exception" errors in my engine log that seem to correspond w/ the failed remove host attempts.

    Hi , had looked in the Python script you had provided:
    First, I must say that handling the database directly may leave DB
    in inconsistent state, therefore, if there is no other option, the
    database should be backed up prior to this operation.
    In addition, I do not like the execution of the SQL statements in
    the script.
    There is a SP called DeleteVds(v_vds_id UUID) and you should use
    that since it encapsulates all details.
    For example, your script does not handle permission clean-up as the
    SP does and therefore leaves garbage in the database.
    In addition, a failure in your script may leave database in
    inconsistent state while the SP is executed in one transaction and
    will leave DB consistent.
    So, in short I would prefer in this case that the relevant SP will
    do the clean-up since this is the one that is used by the code and
    that insures (at least I hope so) , that all related entities are
    removed as well.
