Hi,
after getting to the oVirt Node console (F2) I figured out that selinux wasn't allowing the sanlock, so I entered the setsebool virt_use_sanlock 1 and the problem is fixed.

However, I started getting permission denied error when trying to start the VM that was created on that NFS share. On the ovirt node console, I noticed that the user.group of that share was nobody.nobody instead of vdsm.kvm. I followed the instruction on the wiki about anonguid and anonuid but no luck at all. This was an Ubuntu nfs server. I Installed a FC17 VM on this Ubuntu and tried again and it worked at the first time :-)

Ubuntu has a KVM group with guid = 106.

Hello Haim,
sure I'll provide them. I'll enter the node console and will check that.

Hi Alex, can you please provide some logs (engine + vdsm) ? also, can you verify that sanlock service is running on node  ?
