Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your answer. I tested SSH command on management node but the result is the same: r...@atp-vcl2:~# ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key -l root -p 22 -x *203.143.162.31*'ls -1 /var 2>&1' 2>&1 cache empty lib log run tmp r...@atp-vcl2:~# ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key -l root -p 22 -x *203.143.162.31: /vmfs/volumes/storage1* 'ls -1 /var 2>&1' 2>&1 ssh: Could not resolve hostname *203.143.162.31:/vmfs/volumes/storage1*: Name or service not known Adding the IP address as part of the datastorepath doesn't solve the problem. In facts, the path should be host independent as I can have different ESX boxes. I still think is a parameter issue, maybe the query which extract the info from MySQL confuses "hostname" with "datastorepath".
