Image pending upload in Horizon openstack leaves instance in error state.
I wanted to take a snapshot of a vm in openstack. The task shows "Image pending upload" and doesnt allow me perform any action on it. Shut down, soft-reboot nothing seems to work. Is there any way i can restore the state of the VM to how it was before? I assume some files were corrupted in the VM during the tomcat installation that i was trying. Is there anyway to restore the machine back to its initial state? I want to be able to login to the VM.
What is the status of the snapshot? is it completed?
you may try this
nova reset-state --active $instanceid
@Beny thanks a lot for that. Image state is now active. When i try to do a soft-reboot on the instance, it gives an error. Maybe some installation in the VM, corrupted it. Is there any way to restore the instance?
@sanjana, you might have figured it out now. anyway you can use
