How to restart VMs after a power outage?
10+
----------------------------------------
11+
12+
After the power outage the nodes hosting the virtual machines must be
13+
restarted. If this has not happened automatically, ensure that all of
14+
the nodes have rebooted.
15+
16+
Connect to each of the nodes to ensure that all of the iSCSI mounts
17+
are present.
18+
19+
::
20+
# iscsiadm -m session
21+
22+
If the links are not correctly mounted (bad links will blink in the
23+
list), then the easiest way to recover this is simply to reboot the
24+
machine again.
25+
26+
Once you have verified all of the iSCSI links on all of the nodes,
27+
then you must log into the frontend machine as `oneadmin`. As this
28+
user, you can then force OpenNebula to restart all of the machines in
29+
the `unknown` state.
30+
31+
The commands for this (assuming that you're logged into the frontend
32+
as `root`), are:
33+
34+
::
35+
# su - oneadmin
36+
$ for vm in `onevm list all |grep unk | awk ‘{print $1}’`; \
37+
do; \
38+
onevm restart $vm; \
39+
done
40+
41+
After this, all of the VMs should return to the `running` state and
42+
again be accessible from the network. Any machines that don't restart
43+
are probably lost and will have to be killed and a new instance
44+
created.
