The errors that you are pointing out, don't seem to have
any direct connection to the fact that you are trying to
install a windows VM, there is nothing windows-specific about them.
Looks like OpenNebula failed to clone the blank windows image
to the system datastore due to some permissions issue.

Dear Sir,

I have been trying to install Windows-7 64bit in OpenNebula. Our target is
to create a VM with Windows as OS.

Below are the steps that I followed. But not able to "runn" the VM. SeLinux
is Disabled in both servers.

[root@front ~]# getenforce    --> Frontend

[root@nc1 ~]# getenforce     --> Worker Node

What is the name of your virtual machine?

How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)?

What would you like to use as the disk (file path)?

How large would you like the disk (/var/lib/libvirt/images/win7.qcow2) to be
(in gigabytes)?
