Error while executing action: Cannot import VM. Storage Domain doesn't exist
Funny part is, I only had one storage domain… and I imported it back into the engine… I’m confused.

Hi Donny, Are there any additional details accompanying this error in the engine log? It sounds like a bug, just not yet sure where to look. As for a possible hack/workaround (maybe someone else will have a safer/easier idea here!), the OVFs holding the domain ids in question are in a tarball on the imported storage. If the import failure is happening because the storageId in the OVFs is wrong, it should be possible to update them to the correct value and retry the import. Note that by default the tarball is on the storage in 2 places--I'd change them both, but of course don't forget to make a backup first. HTH, Greg
