Hi Coffee,
The OVF_STORE disk sync the VMs and Templates data in an un-synchronous way every 60
minutes (see [1])
this might be the reason that sometime you see the entities candidate for import and
sometime you don't.
There are patches which sync the VMs/Templates data once the Storage Domain is being moved
to maintenance
the bug is
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1138124
the patch for fixing it is at
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/33158/
The REST examples can be found here:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain#REST
To see the candidates for import you should use the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/api/storagedomains/68ca2f73-9b15-4839-83c9-859244ad...
You should see also the links for unregistered Vms and Templates,
I will take a look at it now and let you know if this was fixed already.

At
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain#Restrictions:
"For better sync of the entities in the Storage Domain with the OVF_STORE disk, it is
better to update the OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes option in vdc_options from 60 minutes to
2-5 minutes, as so : update vdc_options set option_value = 2 where option_name =
'OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes'; (see [5])"
Regards,
Maor

Subject: [ovirt-users] [oVirt-Users] Problems of ImportStorageDomain
Hi, all
I am testing the feature of ImprotStorageDomain recently, but meet some
problems.
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportUnregisteredEntities
I have two setups: DC-A, DC-B, NFS storage: test-import
My steps are:
1. In DC-A, create some VMs and create their disks on test-import
2. maintenance the storage test-import, detach the storage from DC-A
3. login to DC-B, click "import domain", chose Data/NFS and enter the path of
test-import, click "ok"
4. Active storage test-import
Expect result:
1. there are two new subtags in test-import: "vm import" and "template
import"
2. the VMs which were create on test-import are listing in the subtag "vm
import"
3. I can chose VM and import it to DC-B
However, it worked randomly:
sometimes i can see subtags with VMs in DC-B, but sometimes i can not see any
VM, and sometimes i can't even see the subtags.
I tried to access RestAPI, but it return me these links:
<link
href="/api/storagedomains/c7492e17-4418-4a55-ad06-c39cea8c44cf/permissions"
rel="permissions"/>
<link href="/api/storagedomains/c7492e17-4418-4a55-ad06-c39cea8c44cf/disks"
rel="disks"/>
<link

<link
href="/api/storagedomains/c7492e17-4418-4a55-ad06-c39cea8c44cf/diskprofiles"
rel="diskprofiles"/>
without /vms and /templates tags
is this feature available now? or did i miss anything?
Thank you in advance:-)
