Virtual Disk ( HDD ) stuck in locked status ( ovirt, rhv, olvm )

 Applies to :

2) RHV 4.X

3) OLVM


Problem Description :

- Virtual Disk show status "Locked" in Storage Domain. FCP / Gluster / iSCSI / NFS

- Virtual Disk image can not be removed from inventory due to "Locked" Status.


Problem Cause :

- Usually, this problem occurs due to network or any other interruption while uploading /copying disk image operation to the storage domain.

- Keep disk entry for operation resume, but after a certain time Image get's "Locked"

- engine is not keeping the operations state in the DB, and it should handle failures, unlocking the disk if an operation fails.

- VDSM is storing partial disks on the storage domain in spite of copy operation failure.


Resolution : 

- Login to Ovirt-Engine / Management-Engine VM via SSH with "ROOT" user.

- go to "/usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/dbutils/"

- type command " sh unlock_entity.sh -t all " ( Warning !! Affected Virtual Disk data may corrupt , Use command wisely )
