Dear Stewart,
sorry, I was like a normal user... I don't read the error message. The
message looks like:
https://images.drivereasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/img_5751005d9e1c2.png
so that means, not the hdd is missing, the cd / dvd drive is missing. So
I have booted up the VM with mini windows xp, and i saw, that the IDE
driver is present, and if the scsi driver would be loaded, i thing the
scsi driver would be present too. So the problem from installer is not,
the missing hdd, the problem is some other hardware driver. I have
tried, to add ALL drivers directory to directory from the virtio cd/iso,
but the message is the same. So it seems like there would be some
emulated hardware, what is not on the virtio cd. What I have tried, I
deleted the NIC, and every "extra" hardware component, that is not
neccessary. The error is the same. Do you have an idea, wich virtual
hardware could cause the problem?
Thanks!
Couple things...
1.). You created a drive correct? Just wanted to make sure you did
add a drive.
2.) Once you get to that window in the windows setup to choose your
install drive you need to go to your oVirt console and select "Change
Disk" and change it to the virtio iso that contains drivers.
Once you do this you need to "browse" and find the correct driver. The
drive won't show until you load the correct driver. After you do this
the drive shows. Select the drive and go back into the oVirt console
and hit "Change Disk" and choose the windows iso again and continue

Dear Vincent,
Thank you for the quick support. Yes, i have connected the driver
cd,
installed the drivers, but the disk is still not visible for
windows.
Really strange is, that it doesn't matter, if I use scsi, or IDE
(which
should work natively), nothing is visible in windows... :(
So i have no clue what is the problem. I have many virtual windows
guests in my other virtual platform (kvm) and there is everything
working fine.
you have to mount the CD drive with the virtuio drivers during the
setup process.
get to the screen to select disks. do a "change cd" and mount the
virtio ISO. then you have to go "have disk" in setup and add the
drivers. Once the drivers are installed, you have to refresh the
list
before it will show the disks. once the disk is showing up then
you do
a change CD again back to the installation .iso.

Dear list,
I am new in ovirt, and I have a problem, which I can’t solve
with
google. I am not able to install windows guests, because they
can’t find they disk. I have already many linux guests running,
so
generally everything is working fine. I try with virtio-scsi
disks.
What I already tried:
- While the installation process I changed the disk to the virtio
driver disk (downloaded from fedora project), I try to load scsi
drivers, and windows still can’t find the disk
- I tried with virtio floppy (run once) but the floppy is not
visible in windows select menu
- I added the drivers to windows installer wim, but disks still
not
visible
- I tried to add ide drive, but it is not visible either (I have
disabled virtio scsi under resource allocation too, without luck)
- tried windows 7 and 2016
My nodes are: oVirt Node 4.2.1.1
I use local disks but via nfs, so i share the local disk via nfs.
Do you have any idea what could I try. Any clue are welcome,
because
I’m stuck…
Thank you in advance!
Regards!
