Error attaching an uploaded VHD volume to a VM
Greetings !
We downloaded a DATA disk volume (on Local Storage) of VM-1 running in a
particular zone to a webserver DOCROOT and again uploaded as a new volume
using the 'Upload Volume' feature in the webUI.
Now when we're trying to attach this volume to a new VM say VM-2 we're
encountering the below exception,
"*Cannot attach volume since there are no shared storage pools in the VM's
cluster to copy the uploaded volume to.*"
When we check the properties of the newly uploaded volume we can see that
the Storage Type is set to 'Shared'. Can anyone tell us where we're going
wrong ?
Thanks.

Hi,
An enhancement bug has been reported for supported local storage for uploaded volume. More details are @
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4173
Thanks,

Hi Shanker,
Sorry for the late response. This option 'Storage - Volumes -> volume_name -> Migrate Volume To Another Primary Storage' is only shown only for the disk that is already there in a primary storage(Correct me if wrong). A newly uploaded disk which resides in the secondary storage will not show this option. I see only 2 options for it 1. Attach disk 2. Delete disk.
Have tried the process again,
1. Create a new vm with datadisk.
2. Detach volume.
3. Download volume.
4. Upload it back.
5. Attach it to a vm.
It worked perfectly. Storage type also shows as shared. Not sure what caused the problem last time. Thanks for your response :)
Thanks and Regards,
bala

Re: Error attaching an uploaded VHD volume to a VM
Posted by bala sundaram <ba...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
My bad. The volume which i used is shared not local. When creating a new
instance selecting custom size for disk creates a volume of type
shared(disk offerings are created as local). I dont have a shared
storage??? Any way it is a different issue. Will try with a local volume
again.
Thanks and Regards,
bala

My suggestion was to use the CloudStack volume migration feature to move the
newly uploaded volume to the host's local storage pool. This option is available
under the 'Storage - Volumes -> volume_name -> Migrate Volume To Another Primary Storage'
section. When you click on the button, CloudStack will present the list of
pools available for migration.
Once you migrate the volume to a local pool, try attaching it back to the VM.
Note: The migrate volume option is available to the admin user.
If this fails, I suggest asking on the -dev list and/or open a Jira ticket.
Regards.

Hi shanker,
We didnt migrate the disks between hypervisors/storage pools. We
downloaded it, while uploading it back the storage type is changed to
shared. So were not able to attach it the vm.
"*Cannot attach volume since there are no shared storage pools in the VM's
cluster to copy the uploaded volume to.*"
Thanks and Regards,
bala

On re-reading, is your concern that you have no shared storage for the Cluster and CloudStack
is setting the imported volume with storage type of "shared" instead of "local"?

Hi Iliyas,
The following works for me on Apache CloudStack 4.1.1:
- Create a new data disk of type local storage
- Attach to VM and created a ext2 file system on it
- Detach and download to local web server
- Upload volume to CloudStack, the storage type now shows "Shared"
