[one-users] OpenNebula 3.8.3 and VMWare ESXi 5.0: internal error HTTP response code 403 for upload

[chenxiang at aquala-tech.com]

Hi,

I am running OpenNebula 3.8.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 (front end) with VMWare ESXi
5.0 (node). I am able to create a VMWare node in SunStone, register the
ttylinux images (ttylinux.vmdk.tar download from C12G.com), but failed to
instantiate a VM.

Here is what I have as the NFS exports:

/srv/cloud/one/var/datastores/0
*(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,anonuid=10000,anongid=10000)
/srv/cloud/one/var/datastores/1
*(rw,sync,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,anonuid=10000,anongid=10000)

One the ESXi node I mounted the NFS exports to /vmfs/volumes/0 and
/vmfs/volumes/1 respectively.

Yes I configured libvirt-0.9.10 and make it worked with VMWare, verified
by command lines such as the following command (where vmware02 is my ESXi
hostname):

virsh -c 'esx://vmware02/?no_verify=1&auto_answer=1'

Below is my VM template:

CPU="1"
DISK=[
  IMAGE="tty_vmdk",
  IMAGE_UNAME="oneadmin" ]
GRAPHICS=[
  LISTEN="0.0.0.0",
  TYPE="vnc" ]
MEMORY="512"
NAME="ttylinux"

Below is what I got when trying to instantiate a VM:

What might be wrong? This looks like that I did not have write access to
some place. So I tried both the oneadmin and root acount in etc/vmwarerc,
with not much luck.

On the front end the oneadmin user belongs to the following groups: cloud,
adm, sudo, libvirtd.
