Hello Piotr. Thanks for your reply

I was running version 4.1.1, but since that day I have upgraded to 4.1.5 (the Engine because the hosts remain on 4.1.1). I am not sure the logs still exists (how long they are kept normally).

Just to clarify the hosts didn't become unresponsive, but the communication between the Engine and the Hosts in question (each in a different Datacenter was interrupted - but locally the hosts were fine and accessible). What was strange was that since the Hosts could not talk to the Engine they seem to have got 'confused' and started several VM live migrations which was not expected. As a note I don't have any Fencing policy enabled.

Regards
Fernando

Fernando,

Which ovirt version are you running? Please share the logs so I could
check what caused the hosts to become unresponsive.

Thanks,
Piotr

Hello.

Yesterday I had a pretty strange problem in one of our architectures. My
oVirt which runs in one Datacenter and controls Nodes locally and also
remotelly lost communication with the remote Nodes in another Datacenter.
To this point nothing wrong as the Nodes can continue working as expected
and running their Virtual Machines each without dependency of the oVirt
Engine.

What happened at some point is that when the communication between Engine
and Hosts came back Hosts got confused and initiated a Live Migration of ALL
VMs from one of the other. I had also to restart vdsmd agent on all Hosts in
order to get sanity my environment.
What adds up even more strangeness to this scenario is that one of the Hosts
affected doesn't belong to the same Cluster as the others and had to have
the vdsmd restarted.

I understand the Hosts can survive without the Engine online with reduced
possibilities but can communicated between them, but without affecting the
VMs or even needing to do what happened in this scenario.

Am I wrong on any of the assumptions ?

Fernando
