[one-users] VMs stuck in pending state

[Daniel.MOLDOVAN at cs.utcluj.ro]

Hi,

1. Where is the OS section of the virtual machine template?
2. What hypervisor are you using? With XEN the virtual machine might not
boot if the xen kernel was not loaded .

I am particularly using KVM so something like this is in my virtual
machine template:

NAME   = vm-example
CPU    = 0.5
MEMORY = 512
OS     = [
   boot = hd,
   ROOT = hda
   ]
DISK   = [
   type = disk,
   clone=no,
   size = 1024,
   format = ext3,
   source= "/home/oneadmin/Desktop/vm/disk.0",
   target   = hda,
   readonly = "no"
   ]

As for the network, i am using the "virbr0" bridge created by the
opennebula express install, not eth0.

Also, use http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel2.0:template for properly
defining a virtual machine template with respect to one hypervisor or the
other.

Hope this si somewhat usefull,
Daniel
