Hey All,

Having this issue with instantiating VM’s. I’ve removed UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null which solved the key issue however this issue about copying still persists:

The third datastore is ssh and after some reason, seems having it ssh will work but is there a way to try to pick another datastore while instantiating? Sorry, still new to this:

[oneadmin@opennebula01 datastores]$ onedatastore list -x|grep -E "ID|BASE|TM\_MAD"  
0  
0  
0  
\<TM\_MAD\>\</TM\_MAD\>

[oneadmin@opennebula01 datastores]$

This is a default trial install of OpenNebula.

Tried with ssh instead of shared, still didn’t work:
