Hi,

Hi !

I'm currently trying to get the xenserver on centos 6.4 tech preview
working against a test ceph cluster and having the same issue.

Some infos: the cluster is  named "ceph", the pool is named "rbd".

ceph.xml:
<pool type='rbd'>
   <name>rbd</name>
   <source>
     <name>ceph</name>
     <host name='10.111.80.1' port='6789'/>
   </source>
</pool>


You need a secret section inside the <source> like this:

<pool type='rbd'>
  <name>MyCephPool</name>
  <source>
    <host name='10.111.80.1' port='6789'/>
    <name>rbd</name>
    <auth username='admin' type='ceph'>
      <secret uuid='4cae707d-e049-4ec1-ac51-2cf999969dd3'/>
    </auth>
  </source>
</pool>

The secret "uuid" should reference back to the UUID of the secret you'll define.

secret.xml:
<secret ephemeral='no' private='no'>
   <usage type='ceph'>
     <name>client.admin <key_from_ceph_auth_list></name>
   </usage>
</secret>



Don't put all that information in the <name> section, the XML should be like this:

<secret ephemeral='no' private='no'>
  <uuid>4cae707d-e049-4ec1-ac51-2cf999969dd3</uuid>
  <usage type='ceph'>
    <name>client.admin</name>
  </usage>
</secret>

[root@xen-blade05 ~]# virsh pool-create ceph.xml

This should be the procedure to follow:

$ virsh secret-define secret.xml
$ virsh secret-set-value <uuid> <cephx key>
$ virsh pool-define ceph.xml


error: Failed to create pool from ceph.xml
error: Invalid secret: virSecretFree


You get this error due to cephx being disabled since you didn't define a <auth> section. This error is a bug in libvirt, but that will go away as soon as you use cephx.

Wido

same error :/

Any ideas ?

Don't hesitate to ask if you need more infos.

Cheers,
Sébastien

Hi John,

Could you try without the cat'ing and such?

Could you also try this:

$ virsh secret define secret.xml
$ virsh secret-set-value <uuid> <secret>
$ virsh pool-create ceph.xml

Could you post both XML files and not use any Xen commands like 'xe'?

I want to verify where this problem is.
