Dear OpenNebula Community,

To create VMWARE ESXi5.0 VMs using OpenNebula, follow the process can get
the below results:

1) run "/srv/cloud/one/var/remotes/im/run_probes vmware 0 esxi01" from the
OpenNebula front end server, can get below return:
HYPERVISOR=vmware TOTALCPU=400 FREECPU=400 CPUSPEED=3192
TOTALMEMORY=8106080 FREEMEMORY=6484864

2) in OpenNebula front end server, run "onehost create esxi01 im_vmware
vmm_vmware tm_vmware dummy", can create a host (remote VMware ESXI01
server) as below:
ID NAME RVM TCPU FCPU ACPU TMEM FMEM AMEM STAT
1  esxi01  0      400    400     400     7.7G   6.2G    7.7G    on

But when creating a Vnet in OpenNebula front end server with below template
"esxinetwork.net" with command "onevnet create esxinetwork.net":

NAME = "ESXi Network"
TYPE = RANGED
PUBLIC = NO
BRIDGE = "VM Network"
NETWORK_ADDRESS = 192.168.1.100
NETWORK_SIZE = 30
NETMASK = 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY = 192.168.1.1
DNS = 192.168.1.1

Get error return "[virtualnetworkallocate] error allocating a new virtual
network. network_address 192.168.1.100 is not a base address for the
network mask 255.255.255.224".

*Environment* - the OpenNebula front end server (with IP 192.168.1.103),
VMware ESXI server (ESXI01 with IP 192.1689.1.104) and vSphere Client
(installed under Windows 7 with IP 192.168.1.122) server are all within the
same LAN 192.168.1.0. The LAN network address range is configured (through
the router) from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.29, a total of 30 local IP
addresses.

For the above error return, can't find examples through Googling. It is
much appreciated if anyone can help with this.

Best regards,
Q.S.
