Hello Dmitri, I have checked all your suggestion and it is all configured correctly and the ssh connections from my VCL node work properly, 'ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key u804vmsrv' 'ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key VMXP1' But I continue with the same problem and I can not create the image. I will try to find the problem in the scripts.

Re: Help or support
It sounded to me like he was trying to create the initial image (vcld -setup). In the past, I've run into what sounded like the same problem. I typically build the initial image as a vmware guest(the vmware guest uses the target ip configuration, cygwin added, etc), and then I use 'vcld -setup' to create the initial image. I have run into the situation where the 'vcld -setup' would start the image creation process, abort, and complain the host was in 'maintenance'. It wouldn't work until I changed the state to 'available' I figured that he followed the instructions, and already linked the vmware guest to the vmware host, and he was trying to create an initial image from the vmware guest On 11/10/2011 8:53 AM, Josh Thompson wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Actually, you don't want to put the vmhost machine into the available state.

Hello everybody, We are writing from Universitat Autònama de Barcelona Engineering School computer support department. We are trying to install one VCL node with a VMware Server Host as provisioning machine. I have followed the installation process specified in next URL: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/VCL+2.2.1+Installation I have two servers, one with Debian 6 with MySQL and the VCL package installed, apache-VCL-2.2.1-incubating.tar.bz2. Also I have another server with Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS with VMware Server installed with two virtual machines. These virtual machines have Windows XP. I have followed all configuration process specified in the above URL but when I try to make a reservation, I viewed the message "You don't have access to any environments and, therefore, cannot make any reservations.". I don't know if I am writing to the correct mail, but if it is not the correct place, please can you inform me about how I get support about this, I will be to much grateful about information.
