[one-users] VMware issues

[Tino Vazquez]

Hi Harsha,

I am not sure if I understood correctly your issue. Independently of
the user that installed the VMware server you can set OpenNebula to
use any user to access it. You set the username and password in the
<oned.conf> section that refers to the VMware drivers:


   VM_MAD = [
      name       = "vmm_vmware",
      executable = "one_vmm_vmware",
      arguments  = "--username <esxi_username> --password <esxi_password>",
      type       = "xml" ]


and

  IM_MAD = [
      name       = "im_vmware",
      executable = "one_im_vmware",
      arguments  = "--username <esxi_username> --password <esxi_password>"]

where esxi_username and esxi_password have to be replaced with your
VMware server username and password.

Hope it helps,

-Tino

But Nebula now runs as 'oneadmin' user creating a sort of mutually exclusive condition. Any ideas on how I can get this resolved?
