Hello all,
We have a problem with one of our hosts in our enviroment.
De host is disconnected, the vm's are still running on it, but we cant reconnect the host to vcenter.
We can't connect to the host anymore with ssh and if we use the ALT + F1 function then no prompt appears.
So if we have read all the articles correctly the only thing left for us to do is disconnect the host from vcenter (if this is still even possible) en then re-register the vms on a different host.
Our concern with this step is what will happen with the vm's that are running on the host when we say: remove in vcenter.
Will the machines keep on running? and even though they are running on the removed host can we re-register them on a host that is still in the cluster ?.
Cause we thought this should be the procedure:
1. remove the host from vcenter
2. re-register the vm's on different host(s)
3. Turn of the machine that is running on the disconnected host
4. Turn on the machine re-regsitered on the cluster host(s)
Can anyone have a read through this and give us a little hope that this will have a good percentage of succeeding..?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
