Markus, Before upload, where was your image located? On the engine? On a different machine? David ----- Original Message -----

If I don't use engine-iso-uploader command, instead I prefer to uploading the image myself. What is the right directory for me to put my images in? Is it /var/lib/exports/iso on the machine running the ovirt engine?
We use NFS and uploaded the first image with the Uploader to find the right location.Aat least in our case we have very cryptic directory names:
# pwd /rhev/data-center/mnt/10.10.30.253:_var_nas3_OVirtISO/bff3a2be-fdd9-4e37-b416-fa4ef7fafba2/images/11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111 # ls SLES-11-SP3-DVD-x86_64-GM-DVD1.iso SLES-11-SP3-DVD-x86_64-GM-DVD2.iso ...
Even if the root folders do not match in your case I expect similar UUID based folder names. Markus
