Hi Coffee,
The OVF_STORE disk sync the VMs and Templates data in an un-synchronous way every 60 minutes (see [1]) this might be the reason that sometime you see the entities candidate for import and sometime you don't. There are patches which sync the VMs/Templates data once the Storage Domain is being moved to maintenance the bug is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1138124 the patch for fixing it is at http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/33158/ The REST examples can be found here: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain#REST To see the candidates for import you should use the following URL: http://localhost:8080/api/storagedomains/68ca2f73-9b15-4839-83c9-859244ad2cd3/vms;unregistered You should see also the links for unregistered Vms and Templates, I will take a look at it now and let you know if this was fixed already. [1] At http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain#Restrictions: "For better sync of the entities in the Storage Domain with the OVF_STORE disk, it is better to update the OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes option in vdc_options from 60 minutes to 2-5 minutes, as so : update vdc_options set option_value = 2 where option_name = 'OvfUpdateIntervalInMinutes'; (see [5])" Regards, Maor ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Coffee Chou" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, 19 November, 2014 10:18:24 AM > Subject: [ovirt-users] [oVirt-Users] Problems of ImportStorageDomain > > Hi, all > I am testing the feature of ImprotStorageDomain recently, but meet some > problems. > > http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain > http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportUnregisteredEntities > > > I have two setups: DC-A, DC-B, NFS storage: test-import > > My steps are: > 1.
