I bet if you do ps -ef | grep engine-iso you will find you process still waiting for you to type the password. actually no. it asks for the admin password to get the nfs path from ovirt-engine (if you just give the domain name), and to ask the engine to refresh the iso domain (which would happen after 5 minutes as well). you can upload iso images without the engine password as well if you use the full nfs path. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

What you described makes sense to me! Now I tried the second time after rebooting everything: engine-iso-uploader upload -v -i ISO_DOMAIN CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso This time, it simply stopped without doing anything. Don't know what's going on, no error messages, no logs either. On the node, I found some traces from last time: [root@localhost ----]# ll -a total 7316 drwxr-xr-x. 2 vdsm kvm 4096 Jan 13 19:08 . drwxr-xr-x. 3 vdsm kvm 4096 Jan 8 18:13 .. -rw-r-. 1 vdsm kvm 27447296 Jan 13 19:08 .CentOS-6.4-x86_64-netinstall.iso -rw-r--r--. 1 vdsm kvm 0 Jan 8 18:13 .keep I wonder if the last failed upload has left the uploader confused. It seems that it might think the same iso file has already be uploaded. Should I manually deleted the incomplete iso file?

Markus, Before upload, where was your image located? On the engine? On a different machine? David I ran the iso uploader on the engine host with direct access to the file that I wanted to upload. Therefore I transfered the file to /tmp on the engine and started the upload. In our NFS case the file was created somewhere deep inside the ISO NFS mount point. UUID folder structure see answer before. Having direct access to our NFS servers we simply tried to place other ISO files in the same cryptic directory and tata they are recognized. Conclusion: iso uploader does not insert references to those files into the engine database. Wherever your ISO domain is located you must simply find it with iso uploader.

[Users] What's the correct way to upload a VM ISO image?
Hi, I am a little confused by the quick start guide. It lists a command to upload the ISO image: engine-iso-uploader upload -i local-iso-share [file1] [file2] [fileN] My questions are: 1. Do I have to copy the files (ISO images) from somewhere else to the engine machine before using this cmd? If image files are on a different server, what's the right syntax to upload them? 2. Is local-iso-share the name of the ISO domain? For example, should I use ISO_DOMAIN if I have the following: ISO Storage Domain Name | Datacenter | ISO Domain Status ISO_DOMAIN | DC-CPA3 | active 3. If I don't use engine-iso-uploader command, instead I prefer to uploading the image myself. What is the right directory for me to put my images in? Is it /var/lib/exports/iso on the machine running the ovirt engine? Thanks. David ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
