How to recover RHEV VMs in an "Unknown" state after failed live migration

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • During a live migration of VMs the target host was rebooted resulting in VMs being placed into an Unknown state.
  • VM moved into Unknown state due to storage domain problems and cannot be recovered after host reboot.
  • I have 2 vms that were migrating when a hypervisor went down hard. I no longer need those vms. How can I remove them?
