Hi,
The below error got resolved.
Now while starting my esx domain I got the following error:

"Error: internal error: Could not start domain: GenericVmConfigFault - Failed to start the virtual machine. "

Is this a bug?

Regards,
Varun

Hi Ján,

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. It worked and volume is added to the datastore. Now if I try to start the node it gives an error saying:

Error: internal error: Could not start domain: FileNotFound - File [datastore1] testNode/cluster.vmdk was not found."

But .vmdk file exist at this location. What is going wrong here can anyobe plz suggest. Below is my xml:

<domain type='vmware'>

Hi,

could you try specifying the format as well?

<target>
