Thanks a ton for the reply Matthias. I am little confused here. How to add volume on my esx server using virsh? I did SCP and copied my vmdk image to [datastore1] testNode/cluster.vmdk and also modified my xml file as you suggested. Now when I tried starting the node it gave me an error message saying: "error: Failed to start testNode error: internal error: Could not start domain:

Hi, Today I was trying to start a node using libvirt on ESX (esxi-5.1) hypervisor and I got the following error message: *virsh # define /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *Domain testNode defined from /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *virsh # start testNode* *error: Failed to start domain testNode* *error: internal error: Could not start domain: GenericVmConfigFault - Cannot open the disk

Hi, Dear Mr/Mrs. I have two questions ask for help: my virt-manager and libvirt version is : linux-vaan:~ # rpm -q libvirt libvirt-0.8.5-1.2.i586 linux-vaan:~ # uname -a Linux linux-vaan 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-06-29 02:39:08 +0200 i686 i386 GNU/Linux linux-vaan:~ # rpm -q virt-manager virt-manager-0.8.5-3.1.i586 linux-vaan:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 11.3 (i586) VERSION =

Hi Ján, Thanks a lot for the suggestion. It worked and volume is added to the datastore. Now if I try to start the node it gives an error saying: Error: internal error: Could not start domain: FileNotFound - File [datastore1] testNode/cluster.vmdk was not found." But .vmdk file exist at this location. What is going wrong here can anyobe plz suggest. Below is my xml: <domain

Hi, I was trying to add volume...I got one xml snippet and I modified it according to my node configuration: < volume> <name>testNode/cluster.vmdk </name> <allocation>0 </allocation> <capacity unit='G'>2<capacity> </volume> Now when I executed "virsh vol-create datastore1 /local/new_volume.xml" one error message came saying:

Hi, I am trying to start a node using libvirt on ESX hypervisor. Before starting I am performing the following steps: 1) vol-create datastore1 /local/new_volume.xml (Creating a volume in pool) 2) define /local/esxdomain.xml (Defining a node) 3) start MyNode (Starting a node) I tried to get the status of my node and it is showing *running *but I am not able to ping my node (as it is in network).

Hi, I've been trying to figure out how to create a new domain(create a new virtual machine) using the ESX driver. The documentation at http://libvirt.org/drvesx.html says: To define a new domain the driver converts the domain XML into a VMware VMX file and uploads it to a datastore known to the ESX server. Because multiple datastores may be known to an ESX server the driver needs to decide

Hi, I am trying to convert from esx server to local directory a VM names CSB, Its build from source 77b371b18b6a7ad37105a595931514f542a04396 When running: LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct ./run ./v2v/virt-v2v -ic "esx://root@10.35.5.45/?no_verify=1" -o local -of raw -os /tmp/v2v CSB I get the following: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 0.0]

Hi, I have an ESXi server, on top of it I have created one VM whose IP address is 192.168.79.1. I want to connect to the VM on ESXi server from my host machine but I am not able to do it. I have created a network "networkforSC" and I have pasted my xml file content below but I am not able to add any uplink (how to add it?) . Below is the xml file of my node as well as the network which

The first commit removes the --dcpath parameter, which just makes the following stuff simpler. Since libvirt has supported getting datacenterpath from VMware since Oct 2015, it's time to drop this hairy parameter. The rest is quite a complicated series of refactorings, followed by a very simple change to add handling of snapshots taken from old virt-v2v. Rich.
