Hello there,
I am trying to add a VmPool to oVirt using the python ovirtSDK4 with
following lines:
I am omitting the import packages lines and connection lines.
system_service = connection.system_service()
vm_pools_service = system_service.vm_pools_service()
templates_service = system_service.templates_service()
clusters_service = system_service.clusters_service()
tplist = templates_service.list(search='name=prueba')

c = cluster
pool =
ovirtsdk4.types.VmPool(name='PRUEBA',size=1,type=ovirtsdk4.types.VmPoolType('manual'),template=tpl,cluster=c)
vm_pools_service.add(pool=pool)
I am getting the following error:
Fault reason is "Request syntactically incorrect.". Fault detail is
"For correct usage, see:
https://ovirt.example.com/ovirt-engine/api/v4/model#services/vm-pools/met...;.

I am a newbie in using this version of the API, suppose this is quite
easy problem.
Thanks for all the answers to come,
Manuel
This look like this bug, fixed in version 4.1 of the SDK:
Importing a VM using the SDK fails
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1408839
However there is a good practice that I recommend you to apply, which
will probably avoid the issue. That good practice is avoid sending to
the server the complete objects that you got from other requests. For
example, in this case you are sending to the server the complethe 'tpl'
and 'c' clusters that you got from other requests. Instead of that, try
to send only what is required:
pool = ovirttsdk4.types.VmPool(
name='PRUEBA',
size=1,
type=ovirtsdk4.types.VmPoolType.MANUAL,
template=ovirtsdk4.types.Template(id=tpl.id),
cluster=ovirtsdk4.types.Cluster(id=c.id)
)
vm_pools_servcie.add(pool=pool)
The key point here is creating new 'Template' and 'Cluster' objects that
only contain the 'id', as that is all what the server needs. If you send
the complete template and cluster you are wasting resources, and
exposing yourself to bugs like the mentioned above.
Please try that and let us know if it solves your issue.
