[one-users] frontend hard disk space keep increasing

Is this onevm poweroff command only available on the latest OpenNebula 4.2?
I used OpenNebula 3.4.1 before and it seemed the poweroff onevm command didn't work.

Hi,
You can use either onevm poweroff or onevm undeploy [1]. Poweroff will leave the VM assigned to the Host, and the free resources can't be taken by another VM.

I have a freeBSD VM running on the node. So if i'm about to turn off my VM how am i supposed to do it?
I usually used onevm suspend <vm-id> which caused the harddisk space issue on the frontend.


Meanwhile if i'm using onevm shutdown <vm-id> it completely deleted my VM on the datastore. 

Thank you in advance.

That's probably because of the checkpoint file that store the state of the VMs when they are suspended. Note that the checkpoints are not removed so you can use them in case of system failure.





The should be deleted once the VM is shutdown or deleted.

Hello,

I'm just curious that why the hard disk space on my computer front end keep increasing just every time i suspended my VM running on hosts/node computer. I run ubuntu and freebsd VM using shared storage through NFS on the frontend.





Any explanation on this?

Thanks in advance.
