So my 4.2 instance is up and running, system VMs are running (secondary storage 
VM and console proxy VM), primary and secondary storage are up on NFS… all 
things considered and at a glance, things look good.  However, when I try to 
add an ISO so that I can provision a VM, I am getting:

WARN  [storage.download.DownloadMonitorImpl] (1018141210@qtp-2013781391-38:) 
There is no secondary storage VM for secondary storage host 
nfs://172.20.39.74/SnapCreator_secondary

Which is throwing me off, because the secondary storage VM seems to be up and 
happy.  I can see it on XenCenter alive and well, too.  When I go through the 
ISO registration wizard, registration seems to be successful in the UI, since 
the ISOs get added to the templates table--except I get the warning in the 
console above.

If I try to add another secondary storage, I get:

ERROR [cloud.api.ApiServer] (1260872222@qtp-2013781391-40:) unhandled exception 
executing api command: addSecondaryStorage
com.cloud.utils.exception.CloudRuntimeException: Cannot transit agent status 
with event AgentDisconnected for host 9, mangement server id is 
271423992217301,Unable to transition to a new state from Creating via 
AgentDisconnected
at 
com.cloud.agent.manager.AgentManagerImpl.agentStatusTransitTo(AgentManagerImpl.java:1436)


When in doubt, reboot, right?  So I shutdown my CS mgmt server and XenServer 
host and tried again.  I even added more secondary storage without anything in 
it (the first NFS volume had the system VM template on it).  Still, I get the 
same behavior as described above:  the UI says the ISO was added, but the log 
file warns about the lack of a secondary storage VM.

If I attempt to go through the instance provisioning wizard, long and behold, 
the ISO is not listed in the "My ISOs" tab.


There is also something strange that I've noticed (slightly off topic): if I 
have primary storage allocated and resize the underlying volume on the storage 
controller, CS doesn't see the new size.  Is there any way to force that to 
take place from the UI?  Clicking on refresh did nothing about it.

Thanks!
