This page describes issues that may occur when you add VMware servers in Abiquo |
Servers or clusters
In a test environment, if you experience errors with VMware, please check you did not add the same VMware servers in more than one mode (for example, do not add a vCenter server and then add a vCenter cluster with the same server in a vCenter cluster).
Datastores
The platform expects to be able to identify each datastore with a UUID so it tries to create a UUID folder.
If the platform cannot write to a datastore, then it will trigger an error. This error may also appear for each periodic infrastructure check, creating multiple log entries.
Check that each datastore has a unique UUID and there are no duplicate UUIDs.
It is not possible to use a tier containing local datastores of different hosts.
When you reconfigure a VM, the error (
Invalid configuration for device '0'.[InvalidDeviceSpec]) means that the platform is trying to create a disk or use an ISO on a local datastore that is not available to the host with the VM.If the Abiquo UI shows different datastore used space than vCenter, check your datastores in case there are any duplicate UUIDs.
Datastore errors
From Abiquo 6.2, errors in
refreshDatastorewill appear in thenars.logonlyWhen a datastore is removed or disabled, Abiquo will generate an API log entry
Storage outage
After a storage outage, this error appears every time the administrator tries to enable a datastore
DATASTORE-10: The datastore cannot be enabled because it no longer exists on the target machine. Check that your datastores and hosts are all accessible
