Re: Newly created image reload failing on sandbox
Hello, I entered the command from the command line and got the output as shown: [r...@bn18-113 ~](vmhost1)# vmware-cmd /var/lib/vmware/runningvms/vmwarelinux-test12-v0vm1/vmwarelinux-test12-v0vm1.vmx answer Question (id = 981054133) :Cannot open the disk '/var/lib/vmware/images/vmwarelinux-test12-v0/vmwarelinux-test12-v0.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on. Reason: The system cannot find the file specified. 0) OK Select choice. Press enter for default <0> : So, when I go to the path /var/lib/vmware/images/vmwarelinux-test12-v0/ I cannot see the .vmdk file instead the path is /var/lib/vmware/images/vmwarelinux-test12-v0/2vm1 Also in the log we see: 2010-07-15 13:57:22|27904|6:6|new|vmware.pm:load(658)|path is /install/vmware_images/vmwarelinux-test12-v0/vmwarelinux-test12-v0.vmdk 2010-07-15 13:57:22|27904|6:6|new|vmware.pm:load(668)|grep: /install/vmware_images/vmwarelinux-test12-v0/vmwarelinux-test12-v0.vmdk: No such file or directory Hence the problem is that I think is the image creation process doesnt not create files in correct path and so the .vmdk file cannot be found and the naming is also different. Michael, I am unable to login to the vmhost1, I think some access issue.. not sure..! Please advise!

RE: Newly created image reload failing on sandbox
Kiran,
A message like this indicates that the virtual machine was unable to start due
to some error condition. You need to logon to your VMWare host server vmhost1,
and start the vmware console so you can see the message of what input it's
asking for. This will give you a clue as to what is wrong.

Subject: Newly created image reload failing on sandbox
Hi All,
I made an imaging reservation on the sandbox image and the image got created
but that new image cant be reloaded on any computer.
I am getting an error.
VMControl error -16: Virtual machine requires user input to continue
I am not sure as to what input I need to provide and I tried few means for
login to the virtual machine but i think I have no access.
I just read online that restarting the virtiual machine might help.. Any
ideas..?
Below is the detailed log when I try to make a reservation on the newly
created image.

Re: Newly created image reload failing on sandbox
Kiran,
ssh into your vmhost, i think it's vmhost1 on the sandbox image.
get the list of running vms:
vmware-cmd -l
then run:
vmware-cmd answer
This will tell you what input it's looking for or provide a better idea
of what the problem is.

Hi All,
I made an imaging reservation on the sandbox image and the image got created
but that new image cant be reloaded on any computer.
I am getting an error.
VMControl error -16: Virtual machine requires user input to continue
I am not sure as to what input I need to provide and I tried few means for
login to the virtual machine but i think I have no access.
I just read online that restarting the virtiual machine might help.. Any
ideas..?
Below is the detailed log when I try to make a reservation on the newly
created image.
