Re: [Users] exception occured when adding NFS storage

Hi, I started to learn the oVirt by following the oVirt Quick Start Guide. I used one server as the ovirt.engine, and another server as the ovirt.host. Both servers run Fedora 18. After executing the command “engine-setup” in the ovirt.engine, I can get into the admin portal to start the configuration of host, storage, etc. Here was what I am doing: 1.In the Default data center, I clicked the Guide Me icon. The first thing is to configure the host. After waiting for 4-5 minutes, I saw the host ovirt.host is displayed under the Host tab with the Up status. 2.On the ovirt.engine server, I did the following before creating the storage: mkdir –p /mnt/data chown –R 36:36 /mnt/data Add the following line to /etc/sysconfig/nfs: NFS4_SUPPORT=”no” Add the following line to /etc/exports: /nmt/data *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,all_squash,anonuid=36,anongid=36) systemctl restart nfs-server.service 3.Back to the Default data center, clicked the Guide Me icon to start the configuration of new storage. 4.On the New Storage dialog, set Name field to be NFS-Share, and set the Export Path field to be ovirt.engine:/mnt/data. Then click OK After couple of minutes, I saw the error window popped up: Error: Cannot add Storage. Internal error, Storage Connection doesn't exist. From the /var/log/ ovirt-engine/engine.log, I can see: 2013-07-10 11:37:51,300 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.vdsbroker.ConnectStorageServerVDSCommand] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-1) [41c282da] FINISH, ConnectStorageServerVDSCommand, return: {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000=100}, log id: 1bca7819 2013-07-10 11:37:51,303 ERROR [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.NFSStorageHelper] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-1) [41c282da] The connection with details 128.224.147.229:/mnt/data failed because of error code 100 and error message is: generalexception 2013-07-10 11:37:51,382 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.storage.AddNFSStorageDomainCommand] (ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-6) [2612bf14] CanDoAction of action AddNFSStorageDomain failed.

Thanks, Hongyi P.S. If I create the NFS domain in the ovirt.host side (i.e., Export Path is ovirt.host:/mnt/data), then everything is okay. Not sure why failed on the ovirt.engine side. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
