Check for operations in progress on the platform

Before you shut down the platform servers you should check that no operations are in progress on the platform.

1. Check that the Abiquo RabbitMQ queues are empty on the Abiquo Monolithic Server, Abiquo Server or Datanode server

   The number of messages in all queues must be 0.

   # rabbitmqctl list_queues messages name

    

   # rabbitmqctl list_queues messages name Listing queues ... 0 abiquo.am.notifications 0 abiquo.bpm.notifications 0 abiquo.datacenter.requests.ADatacenter.bpm 0 abiquo.datacenter.requests.ADatacenter.virtualfactory 0 abiquo.ha.tasks 0 abiquo.nodecollector.notifications 0 abiquo.pcrsync.messages 0 abiquo.pcrsync.parking-expect-no-consumers 0 abiquo.scheduler.fast.requests 0 abiquo.scheduler.requests 0 abiquo.scheduler.slow.requests 0 abiquo.tracer.traces 0 abiquo.virtualfactory.notifications 0 abiquo.virtualmachines.definitionsyncs 0 abiquo.vsm.eventsynk ...done.

    

2. On the V2V Server, check for any active conversions by checking for the V2V or Mechadora processes

   $ ps aux | grep v2v $ ps aux | grep mechadora

    

When users' VM operations are blocked and all of the above checks show that no tasks are running, it is safe to halt the platform.
