The rhv-image-discrepancies tool reports missing images.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat Virtualization (RHV-M) 4.3

Issue

  • Will soon upgrade from RHV-M 4.3 to 4.4 version.

  • Before starting the upgrade, the rhv-image-discrepancies tool reports the following message:

 Checking storage domain c9cc82b8-79ea-4bf6-9466-553849aba5e9
        Looking for missing images...
        missing images in DB:
        5a1ca24d-24fc-4149-93d0-2d2b8ee83526
        1b8dc1d3-2cb7-48e2-8045-20cfa712df76
        8ff515d3-fe51-467c-8d5f-e619748bdfda

Resolution

  • If upgrading to RHV-M 4.4 version, then the error can be ignored as upgrading will require a redeploy of the hosted engine.

  • The current hosted_storage storage domain will be removed as part of the upgrade process.

Diagnostic Steps

  • The rhv-image-discrepancies tool reports the following message:
