[one-users] ESXi image datastore (default) not working?

[Davide Papini]

I sent earlier the same email without subject, I apologize for that, I am
resending the same one with a subject now.

I have a problem downloading images from marketplace and I think it is due
to the fact that openebula cannot interface with esxi.

I use opennebula 4.4 and esxi5.1 (fresh install)

When I try to import an image from the marketplace I get a space error.
I tryed to tell opennebula to skip free space check and then I get another
error:

ERROR Wed Jan 22 16:01:54 2014 : Error copying image in the datastore:
Error copying /var/lib/one/tmp/eba28569ed15dbf0bbe425d431683657 to
/var/lib/one//datastores/1/eba28569ed15dbf0bbe425d431683657 through SCP

could someone please help me with that?

I think the problem is in the vmfs datastore configuration.

to configure opennebula I used the guide at:

http://docs.opennebula.org/stable/design_and_installation/quick_starts/qs_centos_vmware.html#qs-centos-vmware

what troubles me is that I think opennebula tries to write on
/vmfs/volumes/1 instead that /vmfs/volumes/datastore1 (on the esxi machine)



the output of  onedatastore show 1 -x is:
