VM oel-test was started by admin@internal (Host: oravm2).
When I go to the node, and check, the permissions do indeed look bad.
vdsm:kvm owns everything down through
/rhev/data-center/f465251e-5679-11e1-ba81-97917332892e/24b70dff-549e-46a6-a863-3a158aa6e9a3,
but below that, it looks bad. Here is a "ls -l" of that last directory:
# ls -l
total 8
drwxr-xr-x. 2 4294967294 4294967294 4096 Feb 23 16:22 dom_md
drwxr-xr-x. 3 4294967294 4294967294 4096 Feb 27 16:22 images
And then the owner and group of everything below 'images' is bad, too.
Can some help me determine what happened? And how to fix it?
I've never seen a filed owned by uid -2 before! I suppose you are using nfs.
what are the mount options (look for the relevant line in the output of
`mount`)? which is your server, and how was it configured?
The script in
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=vdsm.git;a=blob;f=contrib/nfs-check.py
may help diagnose few nfs-related problems. Once we understand what's wrong with
you setup, we should probabaly update this script.
