...
Connectivity
The following connectivity issues may occur when you are creating a datacenter
Check which port the remote services are listening on and the firewall connection to the port.
Check that remote services can connect correctly to the Abiquo API, with a correct
abiquo.server.api.locationin theabiquo.propertiesfile.
For more details see:
For a monolithic install: Monolithic ports and communications
For a distributed install: Ports and communications
For a distributed HA cluster install: Configure management network connections
NFS repository
In each datacenter, the Appliance Manager requires a separate NFS repository (NFS share) to hold the
...
template catalogue. If you receive a repository error, for example, that the .abiquo_repository file cannot be found, check that the NFS repository is properly mounted and accessible.

Sharing remote services
It is possible to share some of the remote services between well-connected datacenters (considering performance) and it is certainly possible to share them with public cloud regions.
The sharing rules are:
You cannot share the Appliance manager or Business process manager remote services. This means that you need a separate instance of these remote services for each datacenter. These remote services are assigned to the NFS share for the datacenter.
To share a Virtualization manager (virtual factory) or Monitor manager (VSM), you must use a shared Redis instance. This may be easier to manage when you use a separate Datanode server.
