Hi,

I'm trying to destroy a container but...for reasons I can't understand, it doesn't even...stops.
[root@RSCD001 ~]# vzctl stop 118
Stopping container ...
Container was stopped
Container is unmounted
[root@RSCD001 ~]# vzctl destroy 118
Container is currently running. Stop it first.
[root@RSCD001 ~]# vzctl status 118
CTID 118 exist mounted running


In "vztmp" and "lock" I have the following files/folders:
[root@RSCD001 vztmp]# ls
rm.lck  vzctl-rm-me.XqEaOX1  vzctl-rm-me.XWyrlVW
[root@RSCD001 lock]# ls
[root@RSCD001 lock]#


I can even enter the container:
[root@RSCD001 lock]# vzctl enter 118
entered into CT 118
[root@dolphin /]#


So seems that the container isn't stopping...

Kernel:
Linux RSCD001 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.028stab070.2 #1 SMP Tue Jul 6 14:55:39 MSD 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


How can I fix this please? Thanks!

I can't really offer a direct solution to your problem, just some suggestions & questions that might help.

Did you try shutting the VM down from within the VM? Does the situation repeats itself after rebooting the node?

Any special reason why are you running such an old kernel and what is your vzctl version?

Heh, I didn't restarted the node from...some time... I'll do that tomorrow and come back with an answer

Off-topic: will "yum update" update the kernel also?

Yes, it will. Or, to be more precise, it will install a new kernel and keep two old ones as backup. And as I'm sure you already know, you should check /boot/grub/grub.conf after updating, to make sure that the right kernel is set as default.

After rebooting the node (and a 45 minutes fsck) the container seems to be...deleted.

The only thing that was left behind was the directory on the /vz/private (which I successfully deleted with no errors.

So seems that the problem was the old kernel and the fact that I didn't rebooted the machine for more than 200 days.

Thanks for the tip!
