Re: Not able to delete a running instance

 

Hi,
thanks for your reply.

it looks like you are running a very old version of openstack (perhaps diablo?), so it might be harder to figure out the problem.
I have installed openstack on my fedora 16 by using this howto:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_Nova#Images
(is it an old version?)
Please check:

a) if your compute worker is still up and running
Yes, right now I have installed everything in the same machine
b) if there is an error message in the nova-api.log or the nova-compute.log
I have no idea what happened, but today I am able to remove the instance.

I did not change anything.

Thanks,
 M

Hi,
I have a running instance and I'm not able to delete it. It is the tty img proposed here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_Nova#Images

Note that new instances of this image work (can start-up and shutting-down).

Now the problem is that I'm not able to delete it.
- several time "euca-terminate-instance" did not work without any error message

[mex@minicloud cred]$ euca-describe-instances

- several time "nova delete<id>" without success:

[mex@minicloud cred]$ nova list

[mex@minicloud cred]$ nova delete 4
[mex@minicloud cred]$ nova list

| ID |   Name   | Status |   Networks   |
+----+----------+--------+--------------+
| 4  | Server 4 | ACTIVE | mex=10.0.0.3 |
+----+----------+--------+--------------+

- reboot: right now, I have openstack installed/configured in one machine. I tried to reboot it and nothing has changed.

Any suggestion, please?

Massimo
