[Engine-devel] Missing vfsType from VDSM conList.

[snmishra at linux.vnet.ibm.com]

Trying to create a new storage domain using a glusterfs data center.  
The operation is failing because vfsType is not being passed to VDSM.  
Debugging on engine, I can see that Frontend.runActionImpl() is called  
with vfsType correctly set but it doesn't seem to reach VDSM. Any  
clues as to what may be causing this behaviour?

When I run the test with posixfs, I see -
Thread-169::INFO::2013-03-01  
11:11:30,889::logUtils::44::dispatcher::(wrapper) Run and protect:  
connectStorageServer(domType=6,  
spUUID='00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000', conList=[{'port': '',  
'connection': 'vm-vdsm-de-1:dpkvol3', 'iqn': '', 'portal': '', 'user':  
'', 'vfs_type': 'posixfs', 'password': '******', 'id':  
'00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'}], options=None)

but with glusterfs, I get -
Thread-73::INFO::2013-02-27  
15:40:57,750::logUtils::44::dispatcher::(wrapper) Run and protect:  
connectStorageServer(domType=7,  
spUUID='00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000', conList=[{'connection':  
'vm-vdsm-de-1:dpkvol3', 'iqn': '', 'portal': '', 'user': '',  
'password': '******', 'id': '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000',  
'port': ''}], options=None)


Notice that vfsType is not passed in second case.

This test was run using the upstream +
