  • 1.  Several VMs show invalid status and unknown host

    Posted Dec 12, 2023 11:22 PM

    We had a power outage a few weeks ago, since then we have several 8 VMs that are showing a status of "Invalid" and an "Unknown" host name. The 6 of the 8 are somehow functioning as they control our Phone system.

    We have tried to migrate them to a different host, but are unable. They have a vmx.lck on them. Can't register it. Tried to remove the VM from inventoryScreenshot 2023-12-12 182117.jpg

    Hi,

    Let us know more about the environment:

    • Storage access type
    • vSphere version
    • Cluster configurations

    You can try to reboot the VMs host for unlock VMs files and restart by HA.
