Hi,
After adding vCenter in opennebula. If i will see “hosts” it is showing “0” allocated resource value for CPU and Memory.
After adding vcenter in opennebula, i can see ESX’s datastore in host properties, but not able to add the same into “datastore” to use.
I have two nodes:
Opennebula: 5.0 try out version running on Virtualbox separate node.
ESXi 6 and vCenter running on separate node
Can someone help…

Hi Amit!
welcome to the forum! I’ll try to answer your questions.
> After adding vCenter in opennebula. If i will see “hosts” it is showing “0” allocated resource value for CPU and Memory.
That would be fine. When you import a vCenter cluster which is seen as an OpenNebula host, OpenNebula will show 0 for allocated CPU and Memory as you’ve not still deployed any VM from OpenNebula. As soon as you deploy VMs the allocated value won’t be 0.

Importing or creating the hosts is the first thing you should do, then if you want to import the datastores so you can see them in Storage → Datastores, you should import them using the CLI (onevcenter command) or using Sunstone’s import button. I’d suggest you to read the [docs](http://docs.opennebula.org/5.0/deployment/vmware_infrastructure_setup/datastore_setup.html?highlight=vcenter) about vcenter datastores so you can view the process and check the current limitations with vcenter datastores.
Cheers!

Thanks… Yes i am able to do it now…vCenter datastore is imported as presistent in opennebula.
but, I am facing new issue now… Weather i download an image from market place or i try to use imported template of vCenter. I am not able to deploy VM’s using them… please help.

Morning Amit!
if you’re starting with OpenNebula and vCenter, I’d start creating a VM template in vCenter and then I’d import it using the import button or the CLI (onevcenter command) and then I’d instantiate that VM and check if it deploys the VM. If it fails please post the log for that VM and also run onevm show VMID -x (where VMID is the ID of the VM) and onetemplate show TEMPLATEID -x (where TEMPLATEID is the ID of the template you’re using for your failing VM).
According to your log, OpenNebula “Cannot find vCenter element in VM template” I’d bet that’s because there is no USER\_TEMPLATE/PUBLIC\_CLOUD element in your VM template. Perhaps you tried to create the template by hand and forgot to specify that element. If you create templates by hand (not importing them) [have a look at this section in the docs.](http://docs.opennebula.org/5.2/operation/vm_management/vcenter_specifics.html?highlight=vcenter#vcenter-vm-and-vm-templates)
Cheers!

Hi Amit!,
could you post the following file /var/lib/one/remotes/vmm/vcenter/deploy '/var/lib/one/vms/3/deployment.0?
According to these lines:
> Thu Nov 24 00:58:37 2016 [Z0][VMM]I: Successfully execute network driver operation: pre.
> Thu Nov 24 00:58:37 2016 [Z0][VMM]I: Command execution fail: /var/lib/one/remotes/vmm/vcenter/deploy ‘/var/lib/one/vms/3/deployment.0’ ‘ESX-CLS’ 3 ESX-CLS
> Thu Nov 24 00:58:37 2016 [Z0][VMM]I: Deploy of VM 3 on host ESX-CLS with /var/lib/one/vms/3/deployment.0 failed due to "Cannot clone VM Template: InvalidArgument: A specified parameter was not correct: "
Something is preventing the Clone VM operation to proceed, let’s if we can find the problem.
Cheers!
