Bill, it looks like the logs are saying 'Error in CheckPreRetirement'. I'm just guessing, but it's possible that you can't retire a running VM, maybe? Can you try again, but stop the VM first? If it's a requirement that you be able to retire running VMs, we can look at that more.
This problem is for the MSCVMM provider. We have multiple issues here. I needed to make changes to the schema to call the Pre_retirement and Check_pre_retirement methods for the MSCVMM provider (issue #1). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1297351 When they are called, if the vm is powered on it fails to power off the Vm. (issue #2, this ticket). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1299069 If the vm is powered off, the retirement fails when it runs the Remove_from_provider method. (issue #3) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1299071 The Error in the log is because it tried 100 times to stop the Vm and wasn't successful.
You can find more information in BZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1297351
Bill, Issues #2 and #3 are provider issues so I will comment on them. Support for deleting/destroying a VM on the SCVMM provider has not been implemented yet since this is part of retirement, this is why you see the error when you try to retire a VM. I will take ownership of this piece for SCVMM. I just successfully powered off 3 different VMs via the UI. Can you provide more details around the steps you followed, eg which VM? Does that VM power off OK via SCVMM itself (I sent you the SCVMM login details)? Is there an error in the log? thanks
Created attachment 1117308 [details] Retiring a VM in the MIQ UI My Appliance: 10.8.99.208 Using the MIQ UI, I select the Vm (vm_status_retire). I click on the 'Lifecycle' button. Then I select 'Retire this VM'. I am attaching a screen shot.

It is unclear to me why this BZ has the keyword "Zstream" set and at the same time has a target release of 5.6. I am going to treat it as an upstream BZ and move the status to POST.
This has been working fine for the last several builds. I verified it using 5605 on https://10.16.7.169/vm_infra/explorer#
