This page describes issues that may occur when you add VMware servers in Abiquo
Servers or clusters
In a test environment, 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 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.
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
