Hi Andy,

No worries, have a look at what is set in the global variable "host". You can 
find global variables by going to Configuration -> Global Settings. You can use 
the search field to narrow down the options. If you must make a change there, 
try destroying the system VMs after changing the setting.

Cheers,
Darrin

Subject: Re: Secondary storage doesn't work

First off, sorry for the dup post. 2nd, sorry for the late reply, and 3rd, my 
apologies for being such an idiot. I found that I missed the system VM template 
step completely in all the times I go through the steps.

That said, I got the system VM up, and now getting different error, that it 
can't find the server. I checked the log, it says it can't resolve the server 
name I provided, which is odd. I made sure the name resolves through the DNS, I 
also made the entry in host file on the management VM, host machine, and my 
own. There's no problem resolving the name from CLI. The only place I haven't 
done anything is the system VM that's created from template, but logically it 
should just pull from DNS on the network, right?
