Lu, Can you paste the snippet of logs where you see the error? Can you please elaborate on what you mean by secondary storage setup is not working. In my knowledge, MS doesn't validate the secondary storage path and does very basic tests while adding it. Typically I have seen the following issues users commit while adding secondary storage. Please check if your issue falls under one of them.
1. Users skip the preparation of the storage (e.g. not seeding the System VM to the NFS export or seeding the wrong version for the hypervisor) 2. NFS v4 is used which causes errors during Secondary Storage preparation (Solution: mount the storage and force NFS v3 before preparing the Storage: mount -v -t nfs -o vers=3 servername:/nfs/share /mnt/secondary) 3. The /etc/export file on the NFS does not contain 'no_root_squash' 4. The /etc/export file on the NFS blocks the host/Management Network CIDR 5. Users enter wrong NFS share path (no validation by CloudStack) Thanks, -Nitin -----Original Message----- From: Lu Heng [mailto:h...@anytimechinese.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 12, 2012 7:59 AM To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Secondary storage is not working Hi I have secondary storage setup at management server's /data path, and while I add it to the zone, it is not working(with information server:<management-server-IP> path:/data), however,I can successfully mount secondary storage in the HV server, any one have idea what is wrong? -- -- Kind regards.
