as i posted on https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=150 (still NEW i feel developers are busy maybe someone else may help)

[for "attachments" (screenshot) see the above bugzilla issue page]

I tried to replicate the same storage setup i have on the old 1.x, ie
* a nfs for ISOs
* a nfs for backup
* a lvm/iscsi for vm disks

pve2 is a vm over the physical 1.x which works in production, a dozen vm, 1 ct.

i started creating the ISOs nfs share from the gui with the same settings from
1.x but see no files in the storage. If i set nfs share read-only from the NAS
(as it was on 1.x for ISOs) gui complains about not being able to create
something, but enabling full access on nfs share, no errors, and gu ican see
total/free space on the share, but i see no files in the storage! And creating
a VM i can't choose any ISO as install CD/DVD media (of curse pve2 is a kvm on
ve 1.x so i won't really create a vm inside pve2, i tried the vm creation
wizard just to see if i could see ISOs from there...)

am i missing something?

attached collection of screenshots, ask if need more infos


(as visible on attachments) that from CLI i can see tha mounted
nfs share and all the iso there, and the storage.conf file is ok, i think.

and pveversion (also in attachment):

Any hints, anyone?
Thanks, Marco
 
the ISO directory structure changed form 1.9 to 2.0. to check, just upload a small ISO via GUI and see where it is stored on the filesystem (../template/iso)
 
i see now,
two questions:
1) how can i share the same ISO path between 1.0 and 2.0?
2) i had (and have) no hints from GUI that the path was different from what i added from GUI itself...
3) should perhaps be listed as "<path entered>/template/iso"? or at least written somewhere?

edit: at the same way openvz templates are stored on "local" storage, shown as /var/lib/vz, but really they are in /var/lib/vz/template/cache...
i find this a bit strange...

Thanks, Marco
