Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
Hello All, I am trying to make a reservation for an Windows203 image using ESX provisioning. I am facing an SSH error (as seen in the log file) with error code of 255. The IDENTITY * lines in the /etc/vcl/vcld.conf are : IDENTITY_blade_linux=/etc/vcl/vcl.key IDENTITY_solaris_lab=/etc/vcl/vcl.key IDENTITY_linux_lab=/etc/vcl/vcl.key IDENTITY_blade_win=/etc/vcl/vcl.key I am using NFS as my datastore. In my vmprofile table I have set the 2 important fields as below: datastorepath: 10.0.0.2:/vcl-nfs/export/golden this is the path on the management node from where vmhost has mounted the image. vmpath: /vmfs/volumes/VCL --- This is path on my vmhost machine for the image. Also, when I try to ssh into my vmhost machine - cleesx(10.0.0.3) from command line on management node, then it does login into it successfully. The vcld.log file has been attached with this email. Please provide me with some inputs! -- Thanks, Kiranmye N WSTI Intern

Re: Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
What is the exact syntax of the command you used from the command line? Try ssh again but give vcl.key as the -i (identity key) option and I think you will get host key verification failed. I am guessing the problem is that the vcl public key is not in the authorized_keys file of the esx box.

Re: Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
Thanks Ryan! The exact command that I used is: /usr/bin/ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key -l root -p 22 -x cleesx 'ls -1 10.0.0.2:/vcl-nfs/export/golden' 2>&1 And as you said it failed with 'Host Key verification failed' messsage. i will check the authorized_keys file and will let you know the result.

Re: Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
Hello,
I resolved the SSH error, but now facing a new issue. By seeing the log I
think that the reservation process is failing in the last due to error :
VMControl error -999: Unknown error: The poweron operation failed
unexpectedly.
Please check the vcld log file below and let me know if anyone has a
solution for this error.
Thanks in advance..!

Re: Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
Could be something wrong with the .vmx file.
My first thought is to check the drive type - ide or scsi. esx doesn't
support ide drive types and any new computers added in have hda as the
default value in the database schema.
Could you share that portion of the vmx file?

Re: Reg: Getting an SSH error when trying to make a reservation
Just making sure. Is this the vmx file that was created by vcld?
The displayName doesn't match what vmware.pm would create. displayName
is generally set to the internal imagename + the computername. Something
like esx3-win2003-v0vcl01

My first thought is to check the drive type - ide or scsi. esx doesn't
support ide drive types and any new computers added in have hda as the
default value in the database schema.
Could you share that portion of the vmx file?
