It turned out that the secondary storage VM could not mount the > secondary storage via NFS because the NFS URI configured when setting up the > zone only held the hostname and not hostname plus fully qualified domain > name. > This worked fine when testing mounts form the hypervisors (that had a > properly configured search path) but the secondary storage VM doesn't have > it's domain configured to match the rest of the machines, so secondary > storage operation failed. > The error I got in the logfile was kind of unhelpful when tracking down this, > so a brief note in the installation instruction would have been nice. > I propose we change item 11 of section 6.2.2 of the installation instruction, > replacing "The IP address of the server" with "The IP address or fully > qualified hostname of the server. Please note that only the hostname will not > work, as the secondary storage VM will not be able to properly resolve the > hostname" -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
