Re: [Xen-API] XCP 1.5 VM images will not start

[George Shuklin <george.shuklin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Can you access to those VDI from dom0? (/var/run/sr-mount) If no - work with nfs and dom0 settings. If 'yes' - try to create vm, add vdi to it as secondary device (device=1,2,etc) and see what will happens.

Okay. So this is pretty serious and I know it. Any help is appreciated and I am willing to pay for it at this point.

We had a XCP 1.5 pool with 2 machines as hosts. The storage pool which as NFS mounted lost its ability to export the filesystem with the VM images on it.

Â

We contacted the vendor and we were able to restore it. However, they had recommended that we delete the XCP Pool, recreate it, add the hosts back in, and then mount the storage.

Â

That is where we are at now. We can see the storage and the VM images. However in XCP Xen Center when looking at the images is clear that the metadata is lost. So we can not see which image or snap shot belongs to which VM. The names all are blank when we look at the storage.

Also, if I randomly mount an image to a VM, it does not boot. It produces an error that says:

Â

Traceback (most recent call last): - File â/usr/binpygrubâ, line 808, in ? â fs = fsimage.open(file,part_offs[0[, bootfsoptions) â IOError: [Errno 95] Operation not supported.

Â

I know it is pretty bad.

Â

Can anyone help? We have about 10 VMs for 8 clients on these two hosts.

Â

Thanks.

I can be reached at by emailing help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or calling 602-738-3220.
