Is it potentially an SELinux denial?  I seem to recall an SELinux Boolean that needs to be set on the nfs server.

Didi,

Apologies for the delayed reply.

I tracked the issue down after giving up on the self hosted install. I installed it to a VM running CentOS 7 running on another platform and then added my hosts.

After adding the hosts and dploying a VM on oVirt, everything deployed perfectly, I could never get the VM to start. Digging further, I found that it is apparently a NFS permission on my NAS. What is odd is that I can add the Storage domain with no issues, I can create a VM, but the VM will never start due to a permission issue on the disk image.

On my NAS if I just go into the shared folder permissions and not change anything but just tell it to apply configured permissions to all files and folders, the newly created VM runs just fine. For some reason when oVirt creates new files in storage, it is leaving off the execute for the vdsm user. I also notice that for the image and lease files, it also leaves off any permisson for "other" . NOt sure why the permissions are not being applied correctly. But that is an issue for me to figure out on my NAS, OpenMediaVault.
