Subject: [jira] [Created] (CLOUDSTACK-1004) add to install guide: fqdn required
when adding secondary storage
Noa Resare created CLOUDSTACK-1004:
--------------------------------------
Summary: add to install guide: fqdn required when adding secondary
storage
Key: CLOUDSTACK-1004
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1004
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Reporter: Noa Resare
Priority: Minor
I set up a fresh test install of cloudstack 4.0 now and ran into some problems.
It turned out that the secondary storage VM could not mount the secondary
storage via NFS because the NFS URI configured when setting up the zone only
held the hostname and not hostname plus fully qualified domain name.
This worked fine when testing mounts form the hypervisors (that had a properly
configured search path) but the secondary storage VM doesn't have it's domain
configured to match the rest of the machines, so secondary storage operation
failed.
The error I got in the logfile was kind of unhelpful when tracking down this,
so a brief note in the installation instruction would have been nice.
I propose we change item 11 of section 6.2.2 of the installation instruction,
replacing "The IP address of the server" with "The IP address or fully
qualified hostname of the server. Please note that only the hostname will not
work, as the secondary storage VM will not be able to properly resolve the
hostname"
