Hi Marlok,
maybe I'm giving too few details of the problem:
lvm datastore:
[oneadmin at master ~]$ onedatastore show 104
DATASTORE 104 INFORMATION
ID : 104
NAME : production-ds
USER : oneadmin
GROUP : oneadmin
CLUSTER : production
TYPE : IMAGE
DS_MAD : lvm
TM_MAD : lvm
BASE PATH : /var/lib/one/datastores/104
DISK_TYPE : BLOCK
PERMISSIONS
OWNER : um-
GROUP : u--
OTHER : ---
DATASTORE TEMPLATE
CLUSTER="production"
DS_MAD="lvm"
HOST="compute01"
TM_MAD="lvm"
VG_NAME="prod-vm"
IMAGES
[oneadmin at master ~]$
compute01 is a kvm node where lvm operations will be held, cause backing
storage for that is fibre channel lun, which then will be accessible on all
compute nodes.
Then, I imported ttylinux image to production-ds datastore and all I got in
Images section of the Sunstone UI is :
Tue May 28 17:19:53 2013 : Error copying image in the datastore: Error
registering compute01:/dev/prod-vm/lv-one-7
User oneadmin is in sudoers and is able to launch any lv* command through
sudo.
