Cinder volume showing status as "in-use" but shows no attachment.
Environment
- Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13.0
Issue
- Unable to attach a volume to a server as it's status shows
in-use
although there is no server attached to it. While attaching the volume to a server it fails with below error.$ openstack server add volume a494a8de-1a7e-4a24-a3f2-a07e6c944987 6780193d-ba26-495b-9643-cf0fe98949d4 Invalid input received: Invalid volume: Volume 6780193d-ba26-495b-9643-cf0fe98949d4 status must be available or downloading (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-88c73bce-d44b-4536-8f5c-8c695472ea27) (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-c949c5a7-e7b5-4721-ae8e-0d0bd060edbc)

Resolution
- Reset the volume state to
available
.$ openstack volume set --state available <Volume_UUID>
Diagnostic Steps
- Check the output of the command
openstack volume show <Volume_UUID>
. The attachments field should be empty.$ openstack volume show 5c4bd497-7ff2-4d85-9abc-17225f355690 +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | attachments | [] | | availability_zone | nova | | bootable | false | | consistencygroup_id | None | | created_at | 2019-11-14T07:00:57.000000 | | description | WBPDS_DB_Data_Volume_Extend 500 GB | | encrypted | False | | id | 5c4bd497-7ff2-4d85-9abc-17225f355690 | | migration_status | None | | multiattach | False | | name | WBPDS_DB_Data_Volume_Extend | | os-vol-host-attr:host | hostgroup@wbsdc-OSP-Cinder#wbsdc_OSP_Prod_vol004 | | os-vol-mig-status-attr:migstat | None | | os-vol-mig-status-attr:name_id | None | | os-vol-tenant-attr:tenant_id | f21ec0d2fe9b46a29b9de993cdc9bb9e | | properties | | | replication_status | None | | size | 500 | | snapshot_id | None | | source_volid | None | | status | in-use | | type | netapp | | updated_at | 2019-11-18T06:28:43.000000 | | user_id | a41e1908cbf441f6947153a98713d396 | +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
- Check the status of cinder service.

service must be up and running.$ openstack volume service list +------------------+-------------------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+ | Binary | Host | Zone | Status | State | Updated At | +------------------+-------------------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+ | cinder-scheduler | controller-2 | nova | enabled | up | 2020-02-07T06:55:02.000000 | | cinder-scheduler | controller-1 | nova | enabled | up | 2020-02-07T06:54:57.000000 | | cinder-scheduler | controller-0 | nova | enabled | up | 2020-02-07T06:55:03.000000 | | cinder-volume | hostgroup@tripleo_iscsi | nova | enabled | up | 2020-02-07T06:54:58.000000 | +------------------+-------------------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+
- Collect the output of below command from any one controller. It should not return anything which means the volume is not attached to any server although it shows in-use state. Therefore, it's safe to proceed with resetting the volume state to available.
$ docker exec -it galera-bundle-docker-0 mysql cinder -e "select * from volume_attachment where volume_id='<Volume_UUID>' \G;"
