Good afternoon,

I have a small Pool of 2 hosts. I have a PureStorage device that I use for SR's.
I have a production SR that works 100% on both hosts.
I have created a new LUN on that PS device (LUN 6) I create the SR, Format it, and it attaches to the the first host without issue.
The 2nd host it will not connect to:
If I build the SR in XenCenter I see this error >

If I build the SR in XOA i see this error in the Log>
SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_47(, The SR is not available [opterr=[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/disk/by-scsid/3624a9370ab52430403ee4bb800011bce'], )
The information looks correct

Any idea's why this is happening?!
Any pointers would be very valuable.

Thanks,
Andrew

@nraynaud Any update?

OK no problem, i look forward to hearing from you.

I have tried to use a SR that is used for ISO:

xo-upload-ova --upload Spiceworks-Production.ova 1fee8757-644e-2bce-beb0-9f85380a5842 --override 'nameLabel=test' descriptionLabel='Spiceworks' memory=json:671088640 disks.vmdisk1.descriptionLabel='disk description' disks.vmdisk1.capacity=json:1342177280

The issue of course is, how do i get the settings for disk size and memory. When i try to:

 xo-upload-ova --inspect Spiceworks-Production.ova 1fee8757-644e-2bce-beb0-9f85380a5842

It doesn't know where that file is, does it have to be on a Local SR to XOA?

The VM is 138GB. I read those instructions, what i am failing to understand is where and how I point it to my local disk? Do you have an example of using a file in C:\Export (on a windows box)?

The example the OVA appears to be local to XOA?

Please advise,
Thank you

After making those changes, it got further, but still halted at about 10%. (I upped to 8GB RAM)

Here is my xo-server.service

Anything else we can try?

Ok the file syslog has alot of errors in it, looks like unhandled promise chains. (.then errors) The file is 3MB, how can i get this file to you?

Here is a snippet near the area of import:

OK , i updated to lastest, and it has the same effect. Where do i find CLI documentation for importing?

@Danp

• I have tried from XOA (Enterprise) as well from XenCenter.
• Current version: 5.44.1
• What would I look for in these lots, there is alot in here.

Thank you,

Ah found something after opening xen center:

They appear to have stopped VMs! Any ideas?
