I am trying to migrate my VMs from my old host running ovirt 3.3.4 to a new setup running 3.4.1. My basic set up is:

OLD
vmhost1 - ovirt 3.3.4 - NFS storages

NEW

ovirtmgr - ovirt 3.4.1 (virt only setup) - gluster storage domains

vmhost2 - cluster1

vmhost3 - cluster2

vmhost4 - cluster2

vmhost5 - cluster3

vmhost6 - cluster3

My gluster volumes are created via gluster command line and I have

All hosts are running scientific Linux 6.5, and the intention is to migrate vmhost1 to new environment cluster1.

I have an NFS export storage domain which I am using to migrate VMs from vmhost1.

I have had many varying fail results which I have tried to match up with threads here, and I am now a bit stuck and would appreciate any help.

I quite regularly cannot import vms, and I now cannot create a new disk for a new VM (no import). The error always seems to boild down to the following error on engine.log (the following specifically for the create of a new disk image on a gluster storage domain):

Certainly, if I check /rhev/data-center/06930787-a091-49a3-8217-1418c5a9881e/ on the SPM server, there is no 967aec77-46d5-418b-8979-d0a86389a77b subdirectory. The only elements I have are NFS mounts.

There appear to be no errors in the SPM vdsm.log for this disk

=============

When I tried to import the vm (the one that I then tried to create from scratch above), I had the following errors in the SPM vdsm log:

When I installed/setup ovirt-engine, I did chose NFS as the file system.

I am clearly doing something weird
