[libvirt-users] Error while starting the node on ESXi hypervisor

Hi, Today I was trying to start a node using libvirt on ESX (esxi-5.1) hypervisor and I got the following error message: *virsh # define /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *Domain testNode defined from /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *virsh # start testNode* *error: Failed to start domain testNode* *error: internal error: Could not start domain: GenericVmConfigFault - Cannot open the disk /vmfs/volues/5208f99d-760cf4a2-000c29520788/testNode.vmdk or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.* * * * * I checked the datastore of my ESX server and found out that instead of file one directory is getting created with the name* cluster.vmdk *and inside it there are few more files but cluster.vmdk file is not there. * * /vmfs/volumes # cd datastore1 /vmfs/volues/5208f99d-760cf4a2-000c29520788 # ls cluster.vmdk /vmfs/volues/5208f99d-760cf4a2-000c29520788 # cd cluster.vmdk /vmfs/volues/5208f99d-760cf4a2-000c29520788/cluster.vmdk # ls -ltr *-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 261 Aug 12 17:30 cluster.vmdk* *-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 674 Aug 12 17:30 cluster.vmx* *-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 12 17:30 cluster.vmsd* /vmfs/volues/5208f99d-760cf4a2-000c29520788/cluster.vmdk # Can anyone tell me how to start a node and why I am getting that error message.
