Instance random get stopped while live migration triggered by host maintenance

While enabling maintenance mode i see random instances getting stopped while the host is evacuated, the majority is migrated without any issues. But sometimes i see a instance which should have been live migrated being stopped.

the management server says this

i would expect to just leave the instance alone up and running on its origin host and trigger a failure for the maintenance mode.
