Thanks for detailing the setup. You should definitely work with 4.0, and I am not aware of a specific issue with XCP/CloudStack on CentOS. So stick to one OS.
Did you try what Marc Cirauqui mentioned in the thread below ? The traffic labels in Xen Center and CloudStack need to match. We may have to wait for Marc to enlighten us and he is probably taking a break this week :) Best, -Sebastien On Dec 27, 2012, at 3:58 PM, Andrea Ottonello wrote: > Hallo Sebastien, > thank you for your help. > I will try to put management log on the site you provided. > I started using 4.0 version, tried 3.0 only searching for a solution. > > Let's answer something: > 1- yes management server is running > 2- yes I defined zone, pod, cluster and host. > 3- primary and secondary are defined and available. > 4- I can mount NFS secondary storage and create file inside it from host, > primary is locally available to host (HBA) and I can create a VM on it > using XenCenter, so is online and working. > I also tried using NFS share for primary, or even localstorage (enabling > global config varable to use it for VMs). > 5- zone is enabled. > 6- VMs are NOT running. v-2-VM is in starting/stopped state loop, while if > I enable zone CS tries to create s-XX-VM, it fails, it deletes it and try > again creating a new one, increasing XX number of 1, in an infinite loop. > This is definitely my problem.
