[SOLVED] Unable to stop VM if no bootable media

[Inglebard]

Hi,

I made a mistake when I create a linux VM, I put wrong ISO file.

When I start the VM, it was not able to find bootable hard drive/iso or pxe.

I got timeout when I try to shutdown/stop/reset through the proxmox 5.1 web interface.

The only way to stop it, is to kill kvm process.

I don't think is a normal behaviour.

stop should work in that case, but only when no shutdown is running simultaneously, because the stop task will not get the lock of the vm

Stop not working, even launch once just after boot. (TASK ERROR: VM quit/powerdown failed - got timeout) It reboot after PXE error.

Ok, I just notice through the console the difference between stop and shutdown (Arrêter/Stopper).
Stop is working.
