Hi,

I have installed cloudstack and could add a VMware cluster to it. I also added proper NFS storages for secondary and primary storage in the Zone. there is a problem with system VMs. They can't be provisioned. It seems that the system cant find the ova file for the system vm (secondary storage vm and proxy vm). Here is the message from log:

Please help me get rid of this message

Thanks

did you prepare secondary storage by deploying the VM images?

Hi Mark,

First of all, thanks for the reply.
Second, no , I didn't make the secondary storage ready and there were no templates. It was why I was facing that problem.
now it is fixed, but I am in another trouble --> Networking!

I used advanced tagged VLAN network but it is not working. I changed the hypervisor to KVM. Proxy and secondary system vms are up and running (I can see them in virtmanager), but I can't ping their IP addresses (except the one which is in 169.254.X.X range). I could login to them and couldn't ping public IP addresses and any of internal IP addresses (10.1.1.X range).

look, my servers are in a datacenter. they all have two NIC's. one for public IP range and one for Private IP range. I know that my datacenter created two pVLAN (Private VLAN) for my networks. according to this issue, can I have my own VLANs set in cloudstack? for example, VLAN range 1-99 for management, 100-200 for my customers internal vm access? should they be created by the network admin in datacenter and then I use the same range in cloudstack? actually I want to know, should the datacenter network administrators do anything for my cloudstack installation? and if yes, what is it?

and at last, I am wondering, if this "cloudstack" is really a free opensource toolkit? you guys really rocks!!! it is a great framework.


Thank You
