Check the NFS configuration is correct on the Remote Services Server
Check that your config file has the correct settings for your NFS share. Assuming your NFS Server has the IP address 192.168.1.10. The entries for nfs in file /opt/abiquo/config/abiquo.properties should look like the example below
Div |
---|
|
Code Block |
---|
abiquo.appliancemanager.localRepositoryPath = /opt/vm_repository/
abiquo.appliancemanager.repositoryLocation = 192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository
abiquo.virtualfactory.hyperv.repositoryLocation = //192.168.1.10/vm_repository
abiquo.virtualfactory.xenserver.repositoryLocation = 192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository

If you make any changes to the abiquo.properties file, restart the Abiquo Tomcat server
Code Block |

service abiquo-tomcat restart
|
Check the NFS Repository is mounted
Now that the Abiquo Platform has been installed, we need to make sure that the NFS Repository used to store the VM Templates and VM disk conversions is mounted on the Abiquo Remote Services host and the Abiquo V2V Services host (See NFS Server Setup).
Assuming your NFS Server has the IP address 192.168.1.10, log in to the Abiquo Remote Services host and make sure the NFS share you specified during the Remote Services install is mounted at /opt/vm_repository and the proper config has been added to the /etc/fstab file:

Code Block |

[root@abiquo-rs ~]# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository /opt/vm_repository nfs defaults 0 0

[root@abiquo-rs ~]# mount
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)
192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository on /opt/vm_repository type nfs (rw,addr=10.60.1.72)

Do the same thing on the Abiquo V2V Services host.
Check the .abiquo_repository file is present on the NFS share.
Create it otherwise:
Code Block |
---|
touch /opt/vm_repository/.abiquo_repository
|
You can issue that command from the Remote Services host for example, once the NFS share has been mounted on the host.
Log In to the Web Client
Once you have installed all the platform components, use your web browser to go to the site address for the Abiquo Server:
The default login and password are "admin" and "xabiquo", respectively.
