[master branch issue ]Problem with SystemVMs and Primary Storage in
latest Master
Hi ,
There seems to be a problem with the latest master branch code though I did not happen to see any exception being thrown.
The system VM's don't come up and the primary storage added as part of the zone creation wizard does not show up on the host in the XenCenter UI .
Anyone else happened to see this issue ?
Thanks,
Pranav

We might need to disable scope field for non -KVM zones to avoid such mistakes.

Pranav,
While creating primary ,did you select scope as zone or cluster.
By default its setting the scope as zone.it won't work. There is no support (zone wide primary storage)t for xen ,at this moment supported hypervisor is kvm .
so select the scope as cluster.
Regards
Sadhu

I have made the UI changes to support zone wide primary storage only for KVM as the hypervisor . For all other hypervisors , we 'll have "cluster wide primary storage" as the default option . The fix has been pushed to asf/master.
Thanks,
Pranav

Besides UI changes suggested below, I also think that we shouldn't allow adding Zone wide storage in XS/Vmware if the capability doesn't exist.
There should be an explicit error thrown rather than waiting for system vms not starting.

+1 . Always a better thing to have exception handling at the API later but this would be applicable only if somebody uses the API's to create the zones , assuming we have those UI checks in place.

+1, The UI should use "cluster" wide storage as the default, that's the default behavior of createstoragepool API: if no scope is specified, it implies "cluster" scope.

Sounds like we should actually have the default behavior match the

Ok , Suresh was right in pointing that out that we need to select "cluster " right now as the scope for primary storage with xenserver as the hypervisor . With "Zone-wide" , we see this error . Perhaps I can introduce a check in the UI for the scope depending upon the hypervisor type (xen/KVM) since we don't support zone-wide primary storage for Xenserver as of now.
My set up is working fine now.
