[Users] (potential bug) After I create a virtual disk I am unable to start a VM - Permissions issue ? The node seems to have no write access to the directory on the NFS server...

Hi.

Still not actually managed to test a vm... I can start a VM (and use spice)
without a virtual disk.

However as soon as I add a virtual disk the VM no longer starts

example error message

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VM ddf is down. Exit message internal error process exited while connecting
to monitor: qemu-kvm: -drive
file=/rhev/data-center/b2b2e054-66b2-11e1-bda3-1728f784de9e/2f7ee7bc-09b3-42ba-af91-40d79293e360/images/c507a2bc-38c5-498e-88c0-7cce8169cf67/6c36c8e4-6618-42f3-9cc4-06d2bccdc9cf,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw,serial=c507a2bc-38c5-498e-88c0-7cce8169cf67,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=threads:

Permission denied .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have noticed that the
directory /rhev/data-center/b2b2e054-66b2-11e1-bda3-1728f784de9e/ is not
writable via the ovirt node server.

I am using a separate NFS server for storage.

Is this a bug ?

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

shall I report it ?

Many regards !
