Hello,
Summary
I'm testing engine-image-uploader to transport 2 vms (named infra and
c2) from an environment to another one that are not interconnected.
They are both 3.2.1 on fedora 18 (the second one is all-in-one)
I have problems with engine-image-uploader at destination, due to not
enough space in /tmp
the error is:
# engine-image-uploader -e EXP_DOMAIN upload
/data/users/gcecchi/c2_and_infra.ovf
Please provide the REST API password for the admin@internal oVirt
Engine user (CTRL+D to abort):
ERROR: Not enough space in /tmp: 11648Mb are needed.
But on fedora 18 /tmp is on tmpfs in ram by default and so it is on my
system.... so I would like to tweak this path....
how?
Details:
At first site I created an export domain and exported these vms after
shutdown them.

So I have

images <---> fd0659b0-c75b-433b-8866-13cb6218bf81
I created the compressed ovf archive that is about 6Gb
On the all-in-one target environment (that is 6Gb in ram) after
providing the ovf file I run the upload command.
The configuration is:
export domain EXP_DOMAIN on /data/export_domain
with
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb6 305G 234G 68G 78% /data
and
tekkaman.localdomain.local:/data/export_domain 305G 234G 68G 78%
/rhev/data-center/mnt/tekkaman.localdomain.local:_data_export__domain
Other filesystems information:
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs 2.9G 0 2.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 3.0G 156K 3.0G 1% /dev/shm
tmpfs 3.0G 5.1M 3.0G 1% /run
tmpfs 3.0G 0 3.0G 0%
/sys/fs/cgroup

...
tekkaman.localdomain.local:/ISO 53G 33G 18G 65%
/rhev/data-center/mnt/tekkaman.localdomain.local:_ISO
During upload I notice this strange addition in df command output:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
...
tekkaman.localdomain.local:/data/export_domain 305G 236G 66G 79%
/tmp/tmpORTazo
But after sometime I get the error and also the same in
/var/log/ovirt-engine/engine-image-uploader.log
2013-05-01 17:28:41::ERROR::engine-image-uploader::1221::root:: Not
enough space in /tmp: 11648Mb are needed.
Is there a way to change this path? Also because in fedora 18 by
default it is a tmpfs file system....
Thanks,
Gianluca
