I have an ISO datastore. In that datastore I'm using symlinks to point to my ISOs on an NFS share. All was working great.

Along comes Black Friday and a shiny new 3TB hard drive. Out goes the 5 yo old 500gb drive with EXT 4 and in comes new 3TB drive with BTRFS.

I installed new drive, shutdown VMs and use tar c | tar x to move data over. unmount old, remount new. Fire up VMs, all us well. Create new VM, attach boot ISO and I get:

VM Gremlin is down.

huh? I search archives and see others have had this error in the past...Follow the suggestions...Run the nfstest python script, passes, check getsebool shows virt_use_nfs --> on.

Also went through: http://www.ovirt.org/Troubleshooting_NFS_Storage_Issues

My NFS server is Solaris 11.1, ZFS storage.

I'm a bit confused now, is the NFS server linux or Solaris? ZFS or BTRFS?

If I copy the ISO directly to the directory it works fine. What am I missing?

Maybe selinux labeling?

What happens if you (temporarily!) set selinux to permissive with "setenforce 0"?

Which user owns the file? What are the permissions on the file? And on the rest of the iso store?

Any logging on the NFS server? Can you mount the ISO store from a different server?
