Hi,
We had to shutdown our VMs and hosts, but the process failed on several VM's that were stuck. After a reboot the hosts are up and VMs are started up but the Secondary Storage VM is stuck saying "Stopping".
There are no options to delete it, restart it etc, its in limbo
The secondary storage is hosted on the Management Server (CentOS 6.4), and the two hosts are XenServer 6.0.2
Can anyone help, ive found various posts but nothing exactly the same, usually they say to try commands such as ssvm-check but i cant see this.
Does it need a MySQL hack to change the status or manually destroy the VM?
I have checked the NFS path is accessible by adding it to XenCenter and can browse contents fine.
Thank you

I have also tried adding the secondary storage in again which suceeded. Pinging the ssvm local link or private IP from the Xen hosts results in destination host unreachable but im not sure of this is a good indicator

This is now resolved and needed DB hacks to fix

After this ... the system vm automagically restarted without operator intervention ...
