Hi, i run into a issue where one of the Octavia LB amphora VMs was crashed and since the loadbalancer operating_status become PENDING_UPDATE (or ERROR) it is no longer possible to use the OpenStack CLI tools to manage the LB: openstack loadbalancer amphora list --loadbalancer 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+-----------+--------+---------------+-------------+ | id | loadbalancer_id | status | role | lb_network_ip | ha_ip | +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+-----------+--------+---------------+-------------+ | daee2f88-01fd-4ffa-b80d-15c63771d99d | 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 | ERROR | BACKUP | 172.10.10.30 | 172.11.12.26 | | f22186b1-2865-4f4a-aae2-7f869b7aae12 | 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 | ALLOCATED | MASTER | 172.10.10.5 | 172.11.12.26 | +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+-----------+--------+---------------+-------------+ openstack loadbalancer show 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 +---------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +---------------------+--------------------------------------+ | admin_state_up | True | | created_at | 2019-05-19T09:48:12 | | description | | | flavor | | | id | 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 | | listeners | 12745a48-7277-405f-98da-e7b9fbaf93cc | | name | foo-lb1 | | operating_status | ONLINE | | pools | 482985f9-2804-4960-bd93-6bbb798b57f7 | | project_id | 76e81458c81f6e2xebbbfc81f6bb76e008d | | provider | amphora | | provisioning_status | PENDING_UPDATE | | updated_at | 2019-06-25T16:58:33 | | vip_address | 172.11.12.26 | | vip_network_id | 8cc0f284-613c-40a7-ac72-c83ffdc26a93 | | vip_port_id | f598aac4-4bd0-472b-9b9c-e4e305cb561b | | vip_qos_policy_id | None | | vip_subnet_id | e1478576-23b0-40e8-b4f2-5b284f2b23c4 | +---------------------+--------------------------------------+ I was able to fix this by update the load_balancer state to 'ACTIVE' directly in the Octavia Database and trigger a failover: MySQL [octavia]>update load_balancer set provisioning_status = 'ACTIVE' where id = '0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8'; openstack loadbalancer failover 0ce30f0e-1d75-486c-a09f-79125abf44b8 But this seams to by more a workaround the a proper way to restart / repair the loadbalancer without a interfare in the OpenStack DB manually. Is there a another way accomplish this with the CLI? BR Pawel
