Re: [ovirt-users] Import of ova failed
Bug ID 1358828. I can do another for the direct import of the OVF (without virt-v2v) if needed.

Re: [ovirt-users] Import of ova failed
I tried that already, and it fails. I gave it another try with the GUI on the new VM I created, as you described, and it fails. I can attach the engine log if you like.

What you are trying to do is as far as I understand is to use virt-v2v utility to put the ova in export domain, there may be something wrong between the virt-v2v output ovf and the oVirt engine. You can try the new feature to import ova strait on oVirt admin portal (if you already try that the forget it), go to the vms tab -> import and select "vmware ova" from the select box... > > Cheers, > > Cam > > On 21 July 2016 at 12:59, Shahar Havivi wrote: > > On 21.07.16 14:58, Shahar Havivi wrote: > >> The error looks like you have a problem in the storage pool which is null > >> by > >> the log. > >> > >> Please open a bug and specify the exact steps that you took, > >> ie. > >> 1. $ virt-v2v -o rhev ... > >> 2. goto the admin portal and try to view the VMs in the export domain > >> 3. etc... > >> > >> If you can attach the ova without the disk it will be great. > > And please attach the engine.log as well. > >> > >> Shahar. > >> > >> On 21.07.16 10:16, Cam Mac wrote: > >> > Sent, thanks Shahar. > >> > > >> > On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 10:05 AM, Shahar Havivi > >> > wrote: > >> > > >> > > On 21.07.16 10:03, Cam Mac wrote: > >> > > OK, > >> > > Can you please share the engine.log > >> > > > Hi Shahar, > >> > > > > >> > > > Doesn't appear to be there: > >> > > > > >> > > > engine=> select vm_name from vm_static where vm_name='wvm2'; > >> > > > vm_name > >> > > > - > >> > > > (0 rows) > >> > > > > >> > > > Thanks, > >> > > > > >> > > > Cam > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 8:33 AM, Shahar Havivi > >> > > wrote: > >> > > > > >> > > > > On 20.07.16 20:06, Richard W.M.

Re: [ovirt-users] Import of ova failed
Thanks Shahar. Will do. I created a new VM on VMWare for the purposes of testing the import again with a new hostname, and it failed with the same error.

Re: [ovirt-users] Import of ova failed
The error looks like you have a problem in the storage pool which is null by the log. Please open a bug and specify the exact steps that you took, ie. 1. $ virt-v2v -o rhev ... 2. goto the admin portal and try to view the VMs in the export domain 3. etc... If you can attach the ova without the disk it will be great. Shahar.

Just trying to work out where the conflict is. I had a look at the ovirt-engine code where ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_NAME_ALREADY_USED is raised and it appears to come from a database check.

It may have come from one of my earlier import attempts, though that earlier attempt did not show up in the GUI, it did write files to the export domain.

The import doesn't happen automatically, you have to do the final step manually (when using the command line). See: http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v.1.html#output-to-rhev However that error shouldn't happen. It looks like the name is the same as the name of an existing VM. From virt-v2v you can do the whole conversion/import over again, this time adding the `-on new_name' option to the command line (obviously choosing a name which is not otherwise being used).

Re: [ovirt-users] Import of ova failed
Hi Richard, Sorry for missing that TMPDIR, I was looking rather than actually reading. I used the original ova I'd exported from VMWare, and that worked fine (after fixing perms). The command I ran was: virt-v2v -x -v -i ova /mnt/import-vm/wvm2.ova -o rhev -os ovirt-engine:/mnt/export-vm -of qcow2 It returned without error and copied it to the export domain ok. It hasn't appeared in the list of VMs as yet in the GUI. I guess it is in the process of doing so? It did show up in the list of importable VMs under the 'Import VM' tab under the export domain. I tried importing it from there but it gave me: 2016-07-20 18:27:24,518 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.exportimport.ImportVmCommand] (default task-317) [27b3ad4b] Lock freed to object 'EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='[wvm2=, 7d40eaee-2f3f-4a4e-8254-4c2c3312ce5c=]', sharedLocks='[7d40eaee-2f3f-4a4e-8254-4c2c3312ce5c=]'}' So I guess it is doing the import still.
