Hello all,
My name is Adolfo, i'm in charge of developing of UDS (you can see
something about it on ovirt home page, the case study
http://www.ovirt.org/Universidad_de_Sevilla_Case_Study. ).
Recently (a couple of days ago), i started to test UDS against ovirt
3.5, and sudenlty Template creation as was supported previously does not
works. :(
The idea is allow to create the template in the storage that the
administrator of UDS selects.
The process is simple and was working perfectly before to 3.5 release
(on 3.4, 3.3, 3.2 as long as i can remember). After getting all the data
we need, we do the following (code follows):
vm is the origin vm:
# Create disks description to be created in specified
storage domain, one for each disk
sd =
params.StorageDomains(storage_domain=[params.StorageDomain(id=storageId)])
dsks = []
for dsk in vm.disks.list():
dks.append(params.Disk(id=dsk.get_id(),
storage_domains=sd, name='test', alias='test'))
disks = params.Disks(disk=dsks)
template = params.Template(
name=name,
vm=params.VM(id=vm.get_id(), disks=disks),
cluster=params.Cluster(id=cluster.get_id()),
description=comments
)
return api.templates.add(template).get_id()
This is the debug output of the request:

The response : Cannot add Template with an empty disk alias
On server, i got this on ovirt log:
2015-05-09 08:14:16,940 WARN
[org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.AddVmTemplateCommand] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-8)
CanDoAction of action AddVmTemplate failed for user admin@internal.
Reasons:
VAR__ACTION__ADD,VAR__TYPE__VM_TEMPLATE,ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_TEMPLATE_CANNOT_BE_CREATED_WITH_EMPTY_DISK_ALIAS
After a lot of tests, i have no idea how to resolve this, and if this is
related to the change that was made to admin interface that alias is
required when creating a template (googling have found something related
to that change). The case is that even sending an "alias" (the alias is
unique anyway, but is hardcoded in the example because of tests... :) )
I don't know where to ask for help on this, if this is my own fault of
is something that was missing on ovirt engine. We need to be able to
create machines templates on whatever storage is decided... :(
Thank you very much
Adolfo Gómez
