## Problem

* The VM got stuck in MIGRATING state in UI forever even when migration completed.

## Environment

* Platform9 Managed OpenStack - v5.4.9 and Higher

## Cause

* VM migration process was completed, but somehow during post migration operation source host did not receive confirmation from destination host about migration completion.

## Resolution

* Login to source and destination host and confirm where the VM is running:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Bash" %}

```bash
# sudo virsh list
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Additional Information

* Below error is observed on source host's ostackhost logs which shows migration was completed,but source host was not aware:
