Check the Abiquo NFS Repository is mounted
Now that the Abiquo Platform has been installed, we need to make sure that the NFS Repository* used to store the VM Templates and VM disk conversions is mounted in the Abiquo Remote Services host and the *Abiquo V2V Services host (Have a look at the NFS Server Setup).
Assuming your NFS Server has the IP address 192.168.1.10, login to the Abiquo Remote Services host and make sure the NFS share you specified during the Remote Services install is mounted in /opt/vm_repository and the proper config has been added to the /etc/fstab file:
[root@abiquo-rs ~]# cat /etc/fstab /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository /opt/vm_repository nfs defaults 0 0
[root@abiquo-rs ~]# mount
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)
192.168.1.10:/opt/vm_repository on /opt/vm_repository type nfs (rw,addr=10.60.1.72)
Do the same thing in the Abiquo V2V Services host.
Check the file .abiquo_repository is present in the NFS share.
Create it otherwise:
touch /opt/vm_repository/.abiquo_repository
You can issue that command from the Remote Services host for example, once the NFS share has been mounted in the host.
Add the Hypervisors and Storage Server to the Platform
Now you are ready to start managing your Hypervisors and Storage Server. Have a look at the User Guide to get you started:
