Issue with VMs in the course

I am working through this training, and any VM I create gets into a starting status, but never starts. I have restarted the lab environment a few times.

I see this warning each time.
VMCannotBeEvicted The VMs eviction strategy is set to LiveMigration but the VM is not migratable

@Gerrard Please elaborate more on this,  which chapter and section are you in and what step are you seeing this error on ? Also which version of the course are you using ? If possible attach a screenshot of the error so that I can take a look.

@Gerrard sorry I could not check it, I will check and let you know asap!

Also, ch02s03 is a lecture and not a guided exercise or lab - are you doing Ch02s04 instead ?

@Gerrard I am trying to reporduce this issue from Ch02s04 of DO316 v4.16 in my lab now, in the meanwhile just to make sure are you creating the VMs in correct project ? I can see openshift-cnv in the project drop down.

@Gerrard I just did ch02s04 lab in the course DO316v4.16 and could not replicate the issue :

You can see that the  VM is running without any issues.

I will recommend you to check the course steps carefully and follow it step by step and see if you can make it now.

@Chetan_Tiwary_ After taking a bit of a break from this course, and starting it again.  I am again encoutering the exact same issue.

I have no idea what step I am missing, but need some further assistance in diagnosing where I am going wrong.  I don't believe I am missing any steps, but there is no indication what this means, nor how to resolve it.
