If anyone was wondering, the behavior is different on 5+:
# cd /vmfs/volumes/
/vmfs/volumes # ls -l
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17 Jun 26 15:56 1 -> 8dae7639-df402f02
/vmfs/volumes # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
NFS 9.8G 1.8G 8.0G 19% /vmfs/volumes/1
This is what the script expects, and I guess now I know the reason ESX 5+ is
listed as "supported". It might be nice to support older ESX if that's the only
change, but for now I'm just going to wait until the rest of our blades get
updated.
Thanks!
Brad

Hi Tino,
Thanks for responding. You can rename the datastores from the vSphere client to
0 and 1, however, that is not how they're named on the file system, on the file
system they look like this:
$ ls -al /vmfs/volumes/ | egrep "0 -> | 1 -> "
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 17 Jun 26 15:05 0 ->
3e0efa3e-35c16500
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 17 Jun 26 15:05 1 ->
8dae7639-df402f02
$ df -m | egrep '35c16500|df402f02'
nfs 10078 1877 7689 20%
/vmfs/volumes/3e0efa3e-35c16500
nfs 10078 1877 7689 20%
/vmfs/volumes/8dae7639-df402f02
They're symlinked, which is no good for OpenNebula because the monitor script
here:
https://github.com/OpenNebula/one/blob/11520021f718bbc6762f7be90d8cec00764fc327/src/datastore_mad/remotes/vmfs/monitor
on line 67 is checking df, but df is using the actual mount path, not a
symlink.
I do have some esx 5+ hosts to try mounting my NFS exports on to see if they
are mounted differently. If that doesn't work, I'll simply change that line 67
to something like this:
DF_STR=\$($DF -m | grep `ls -al /\`echo $BASE_PATH | awk '{split($0,a,"/");
print a[2], a[3]}' | sed -e 's/ /\//g'\` | grep " -> \`echo $BASE_PATH | awk
'{split($0,a,"/"); print a[4]}'\`" | awk '{print $11}'` | sed -e 's/ \+/:/g')
Which I don't want to do, but should get the expected output.
Thanks!
Brad

OpenNebula supports ESX 5.x, so it may be a good idea to update. In
any case, it should work in ESX 4.x as well, can't you name the NFS
based datastore as "0" and "1"? What error is it giving? If there are
errors, you can try creating it with a different name and then
renaming it.
Hope it helps,
-Tino
