Re: [one-users] Interact with running VM
Dear Tino, I don't know what happens with snapshot-revert, but I know that with snapshot-create gives that message (strange for me too). The only command that I tryed is virsh snapshot-create...nothing else. I attach a screenshot cause I know it's incredible.

Re: [one-users] Interact with running VM
Dear Tino, the MAC address is correctly assigned from leases, but probably the vmcontext.sh is not executed at boot (maybe rc2.d is not the correct runlevel for Ubuntu Server). With regard to the snapshot problem, I can confirm that when I execute the command virsh -c gsx://?no_verify=1 snapshot-create $ONE_LOCATION/lib/remotes/vmm/vmware/checkpoint, executed also in the "save" vmware script, it gives me the error "Domain snapshot not found: Could not find snapshot with name 'checkpoint'" In my opinion this is because it creates the snapshot (in fact if I use virsh snapshot-list there is a snapshot) but it gives the snapshot a totally different name, in my case "VMware Server Undopoint", and not the name that I decide.

Dear Tino, thanks for your answer, but problems remain. 1) Network problem: I followed what "http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel2.0:cong"; says. 1. copied the vmcontext.sh file in the /etc/init.d directory of the disk used by the VM 2. created the link to vmcontext.sh in /etc/rc2.d However, when I start vm with opennebula, it seems opennebula assigned an IP from leases of the VN, but ping fails and if I enter the virtual machine via VI Client I see that the real assigned IP is totally different. 2) Snapshot problem: I made some tests and found this: if I try to make a snapshot directly with virsh snapshot-create it gives to me this error "Domain snapshot not found: Could not find snapshot with name '1294913536'" (I let him assign a name).
