Hey everyone, We had a discussion with some colleagues at work. There was some confusion over the expected behavior of Openstack/Nova regarding the state of VMs on a compute that is down(or one where Nova is in a "bad" state and unable to update properly). Right now, it seems that the VMs will stay in the last state they we're seen. We we're wondering if there was a way to expose the fact that the underlying hypervisor is down? Something like a "Warning : no data from compute since xx:xx:xx" I did not see any documentation regarding a possible configuration option somewhere but a lot of posts with people with similar questions. I understand that the state of the VM shouldn't be changed based on the status of a compute - but exposing the fact that the state itself is not current might be good middle-ground. I do see a possible issue with the fact that the hypervisor itself is not known if the User/Project is not admin. Is anyone aware of anything similar in the past? Thanks!
