Open Stack

The problem is that in opestack you can't find this vm if I want to delete:


nova reset-state 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7 --active
Reset state for server 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7 failed: No server with a name or ID of '94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7' exists.
ERROR (CommandError): Unable to reset the state for the specified server(s).


openstack server delete 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7
No server with a name or ID of '94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7' exists.


nova force-delete 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7
ERROR (CommandError): No server with a name or ID of '94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7' exists.


openstack server delete hk-qaciapp-2020
No server with a name or ID of 'hk-qaciapp-2020' exists.


But if I list it like this can see:

openstack server list --all-projects --long --limit -1 | grep 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7
| 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7 | hk-qaciapp-2020                        | BUILD   | scheduling | NOSTATE     |                                       | CentOS-7-x86_64-1511 (14.11.2017)          | 2caaef01-e2f9-4e93-961a-c2b2d4a6be82 | QA_VLAN62         | None            |


:/


It was created with the api before, maybe should try to delete with the API? Not sure :/

Hello,


I have vm which is stuck in the build phase:


openstack server list --all-projects --long --limit -1 | grep 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7                                                               | 94ab55d3-3e39-48d3-a9b2-505838ceb6e7 | hk-qaciapp-2020                        | BUILD   | scheduling | NOSTATE     |                                       | CentOS-7-x86_64-1511 (14.11.2017)          | 2caaef01-e2f9-4e93-961a-c2b2d4a6be82 | QA_VLAN62         | None


I've tried to delete with openstack server delete, nova delete force, restarted the nova services on all management nodes, restarted the nova compute service where it was originally spawned but still visible.


I see in the database in couple of places either the id and either the hostname, like in instance mapping table, instances table, nova_cell0 database ...


I have an idea how to delete, so I'd spawn just a vm and check which tables are created the entries, and I would go through all tables with the problematic one and delete 1 by 1 but this will takes me hours ....

Any faster way you might suggest me please?


Thank you
