VMware and ISO

Hi,

I was wondering if someone with CloudStack VMware knowledge could comment
on the following screen shot:

http://snag.gy/7oAIA.jpg

I'm trying to kick off a VM based on an Ubuntu 12.4 (64 bit) ISO.

I don't understand the failure point where it is trying to create a NAS
datastore. Can someone explain why it is trying to do this?

By the way, 192.168.56.10 is my DevCloud2 host.

Thanks a lot!!

Ah, thanks for that info, Kelven. I was beginning to wonder if my ESX host
could see my DevCloud2 host and it looks like that is, in fact, the case.

CloudStack uses NFS datastore to communicate with ESX host for it to
retrieve ISO content. The error on screen shows that your ESX host is
having connectivity problem to reach your NFS server
