Can't create bond on pool. Error: You do not have permissions

[olivierlambert]

Hi,

Are you an XO admin user?

[lover]

@olivierlambert Yes I am. There is only the admin user created on this instance. I should also point out the bond name shows in a weird state in the network tab after I click create and get the error.

[olivierlambert]

Can you provide the exact error message please?

[lover]

@olivierlambert
I deleted the interface and when I recreated it I got the following error.

All my hosts are up and running and show green in the pool hosts section.

[olivierlambert]

All hosts of the pool are working? Because it tells you there's one host of the pool that can't be reach.

[lover]

@olivierlambert Xen Orchestra is showing the are all good. I can connect to them locally too and they are behaving like normal. Is it because they are currently using the interface I want bonded?

[Danp]

@lover It will show you the problematic host if you go to Home > Hosts in XOA and then replace the default filter with "0dd44cf9-9d29-4750-92c6-69860d47e8f1" (without the quotes).

[lover]

Thanks for the replies Dan and Olivier.

@Danp the host it points to is online and I can ping back and forth between them and its showing running in XO.

[Danp]

@lover said in Can't create bond on pool. Error: You do not have permissions:

Then one host out of the four in the pool will go offline and I will need to do an emergency network reset to get it back online.

Is this the same host as indicated by the OpaqueRef?

[lover]

@Danp It's a different one each time. If I repeat the steps the next one in line will go offline. Also, I was able to create a bond for the faster NICs with no issues which I'm guessing is because they were not in use.

Edit: I've also tried with that OpaqueRef not in the pool and it will just bring a different one offline.

[lover]

I'm still having this issue. Anyone have any ideas?

[Danp]

If you are still in the POC phase, I would rebuild the pool where you only add the pool members after configuring the networking on the pool master.

[lover]

@Danp I will do that, Thank you for the suggestion.

[lover]

Thank you @Danp , that suggestion worked! For anyone seeing this in the future, I just bond the nics on the master before adding the rest of the hosts to the pool.
