[libvirt-users] Cannot create a volume
Hi all, I'm trying to create a new volume in a netfs pool. The pool works correctly and it is active. If I try to create the volume from the virt-manager GUI nothing happens. While if I use virsh this is the result. *virsh # pool-list * *Name State Autostart * *-----------------------------------------* *routers active yes * * * *virsh # vol-create-as routers namevol 2G* *error: Failed to create vol vr1* *error: cannot create path '/var/lib/libvirt/images/routers/namevol': Invalid argument* What am I missing? Thanks for your help! Daniele

The pool works correctly and it is active. If I try to create the volume from the virt-manager GUI nothing happens.
Then virt-manager has a bug, it should report error, by an error dialog or something similiar.
While if I use virsh this is the result.
/virsh # pool-list / /Name State Autostart / /-----------------------------------------/ /routers active yes / / / /virsh # vol-create-as routers namevol 2G/ /error: Failed to create vol vr1/
/Err, odd the volume name is displayed as "vr1". /
/error: cannot create path '/var/lib/libvirt/images/routers/namevol': Invalid argument/
And the error is actually from creating a directory. Is the pool really a nfs type pool?
What am I missing?
Thanks for your help! Daniele

Looks like it was just a permission problem in the destination folder! Thanks for your answer anyway Daniele On Sep 7, 2013 8:15 AM, "Osier Yang" <jyang@redhat.com> wrote:
