VM 9000 Shutdown Complete

Date: $(date)
Action: VM 9000 (besu-temp-all-nodes) shutdown executed


Shutdown Summary

VM 9000 Successfully Stopped

Shutdown Process

  1. Graceful Shutdown Attempted: Failed (QEMU guest agent not running)
  2. Force Stop Executed: Successful
  3. Final Status: stopped

VM Details

  • VMID: 9000
  • Name: besu-temp-all-nodes
  • Previous Status: Running
  • Current Status: Stopped
  • Resources Freed: 32GB RAM, 6 CPU cores

Resource Status

Before Shutdown

Deployment Status Memory CPU Cores
LXC Containers (1000-2502) Running 104GB 40 cores
VM 9000 Running 32GB 6 cores
Total Both Running 136GB 46 cores

After Shutdown

Deployment Status Memory CPU Cores
LXC Containers (1000-2502) Running 104GB 40 cores
VM 9000 ⏸️ Stopped 0GB 0 cores
Total LXC Only 104GB 40 cores

Resources Freed

  • 32GB RAM freed
  • 6 CPU cores freed
  • 1TB disk available (but still allocated)

Current Active Deployment

LXC Containers (1000-2502)

Status: All 12 containers running

  • Validators (1000-1004): 5 containers, services active
  • Sentries (1500-1503): 4 containers (3 services active, 1 needs attention)
  • RPC Nodes (2500-2502): 3 containers, services active

Total Active Resources: 104GB RAM, 40 CPU cores


Commands Executed

# Attempted graceful shutdown
qm shutdown 9000

# Force stop (graceful shutdown failed due to QEMU guest agent)
qm stop 9000

# Verified shutdown
qm status 9000

Result: status: stopped


Next Steps

If VM 9000 is Needed Again

VM 9000 can be restarted if needed:

# Start VM
qm start 9000

# Check status
qm status 9000

# Access (once network is fixed)
ssh root@192.168.11.90

Current Focus

Now that VM 9000 is stopped, focus should be on:

  1. LXC Containers: 11/12 services active
  2. VMID 1503: Fix service file issue (if needed)
  3. Monitor Services: Ensure all LXC services remain healthy
  4. Performance: Monitor resource usage of LXC deployment

Benefits of Shutdown

Resource Optimization: Freed 32GB RAM and 6 CPU cores
Simplified Management: Single deployment type (LXC containers)
Reduced Complexity: One less system to monitor
Cost Efficiency: Lower resource utilization
Focus: All resources dedicated to production LXC deployment


Verification

To verify current state:

# Check VM 9000 status
qm status 9000
# Expected: status: stopped

# Check LXC containers
pct list | grep -E '^100[0-9]|^150[0-9]|^250[0-2]'
# Expected: 12 containers listed, all showing "running"

# Check resource usage
free -h  # On Proxmox host
# Should see more available RAM than before

Shutdown Completed: $(date)
Verified By: Automated shutdown script
Status: Success
