Hi,
I do not remember exacly, but you might check the source code of
hosted engine's VdsmBackend where we do that too.

I think you are missing the prepareImage call.
I think that prepareImage is probably the missing piece to this;
however, it seems that the hosted engine's create_volume method with
calls _get_volume_path which calls prepareImage.
vdsClient's prepareImage command takes a volume UUID as an agrument I've
tried passing the new UUID I created for the createVolume command, the
UUID returned from that command, and a fresh UUID. All of these return
the same error: Volume does not exist
I've also tried manually creating the image directory under the storage
domain directory with the same results for all commands.

Hello all,
Like the title says, I need to work with VDSM's storage layer without
involving the engine.
Presently, I'm testing this with NFS domains and have been able to use
vdsClient to create, attach, and activate a new storage domain, but I have
not been able to create a new image or volume.
Here are the commands I ran to get to this step, starting with a nfs volume
already mounted on the machine I ran the commands on.
----
vdsClient -s host_name createStorageDomain 1
97338d5c-9b6f-1859-b827-e977ed082e53 cli_domain storage_server:/data
vdsClient -s host_name attachStorageDomain
97338d5c-9b6f-1859-b827-e977ed082e53 00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033c
vdsClient -s host_name activateStorageDomain
97338d5c-9b6f-1859-b827-e977ed082e53 00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033c
vdsClient -s frodo createVolume 97338d5c-9b6f-1859-b827-e977ed082e53
00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033c 0288f410-71f1-4b7d-bdb7-e815a93e34ef
53690000000 5 1 2 96d7726c-6969-40a5-84bd-0925496b6051 cli_volume
----
The last command outputs a new UUID, but there is nothing under
/rhev/data-center/00000001-0001-0001-0001-00000000033c/97338d5c-9b6f-1859-b827-e977ed082e53/images/
directory.
If I pass createVolume an existing image/storage domain UUID, the command
still outputs a new UUID, but nothing changes under the images directory.
Is there a step that I am missing somewhere in this process?
