Thank you for the tip!
This command actually those not work - "mount -o soft,tcp,timeo=133,retrans=1
<remote directory> <local directory>"
Verbose output reports:
mount.nfs: timeout set for Fri May 7 09:58:35 2021
mount.nfs: trying text-based options
'soft,tcp,timeo=10,retrans=1,vers=4.1,addr=A.A.A.A,clientaddr=B.B.B.B'
mount.nfs: mount(2): Input/output error
mount.nfs: mount system call failed
My previous tests (and cloudstack mounts) that were working were all on NFSv3.
This is very weird that certain Cloudstack mounts are made through NFSv3 and
others through v4.
I do tried to mount nfs v4 from XenCenter and it failed the same way.
- there is nothing in the XCPNG logs - SMlog or xensource log
- there is no traffic coming to the NFS server nor any traffic is seen on the
firewall.
I believe there is something wrong with the XCP and Nfs v4 mount request, as
soon as execute the command with NFS v3 specified it works
"mount -o soft,tcp,timeo=133,retrans=1, vers=3 <remote directory> <local
directory>"
I will continue to investigate.
Regards,
Jordan

Hi Jordon,
You can try running the below mount command on XCP host which runs during this
operation to see what is the actual mount problem, you can check it in verbose
mode too.
"mount -o soft,tcp,timeo=133,retrans=1 <remote directory> <local directory>"
The other error raises a concern of adding unsupported XCP 8.2 version is added
properly in CloudStack. I see your previous email thread about XCP-ng 8.2
support.
"Failed to create templateUnsupported command issued:
org.apache.cloudstack.storage.command.CopyCommand. Are you sure you got the
right type of server?"
Can you check around the above exception if you get any clue around why exactly
it failed. You can try the same operations with some lower versions of XCP-ng
and see if it fails there too.
Regards,
Harikrishna

It seems the host tries to mount the NFS and move the template there.
Unfortunately it cannot happen even though NFS can be mounted manualy or
through Cloudstack when instances are deployed.
Output from XCPNG log files -> /var/log/cloud/cloud.log the following messages
are seen.
DEBUG [root] Unexpected error while trying to mount x.x.x.x:/var/secondary to

NFS firewall and XCPNG iptables are disabled.

Subject: cannot create template?
Hey everyone,
Bumped into the following error today while trying to create a
template from ROOT volume.
Environment is: CS 4.15 + XCPNG 8.2 + presetup - Fiber storage
The process failed with the following error message in the
management server logs:
callHostPlugin failed for cmd: create_secondary_storage_folder with args
remoteMountPath: X.X.X.X:/var/secondary, newFolder: template/tmpl/2/206, due
to There was a failure communicating with the plugin.
GUI error is - (Centos 7) Failed to create templateUnsupported
command issued: org.apache.cloudstack.storage.command.CopyCommand. Are you sure
you got the right type of server?
I am not really sure where to start here, there are no
blockages on the networking side, also the NFS can mount to the hosts
successfully and instances can be deployed from ISOs.
Best Regards,
Jordan
