Re: [Users] What's the correct way to upload a VM ISO image?
What you described makes sense to me!
Now I tried the second time after rebooting everything:
engine-iso-uploader upload -v -i ISO_DOMAIN CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso &
This time, it simply stopped without doing anything. Don't know what's going on,
no error messages, no logs either.
On the node, I found some traces from last time:
[root@localhost 11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111]# ll -a
total 7316
drwxr-xr-x. 2 vdsm kvm 4096 Jan 13 19:08 .
drwxr-xr-x. 3 vdsm kvm 4096 Jan 8 18:13 ..
-rw-r-----. 1 vdsm kvm 27447296 Jan 13 19:08 .CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso
-rw-r--r--. 1 vdsm kvm 0 Jan 8 18:13 .keep
I wonder if the last failed upload has left the uploader confused. It seems that it might
think the same iso file has already be uploaded. Should I manually deleted the incomplete
iso file?

I ran the iso uploader on the engine host with direct access
to the file that I wanted to upload. Therefore I transfered the
file to /tmp on the engine and started the upload. In our
NFS case the file was created somewhere deep inside the
ISO NFS mount point. UUID folder structure see answer
before.
Having direct access to our NFS servers we simply tried to
place other ISO files in the same cryptic directory and
"tata" they are recognized. Conclusion: iso uploader does
not insert references to those files into the engine database.
Wherever your ISO domain is located you must simply
"find it with iso uploader". Afterwards you can move around
your ISO files as you like.
