Hi,

I have install my first opennebula, yeeeheee.  
The server works fine with vlan and default disk storage.  
But I can’t get the LVM block data storage to work.  
I can create new empty images but not vm’s with lvm storage.

Hello @mickyman,

Could you provide some more info about the errors logged for failed VM creation?

At least `/var/log/one/<VM_ID>.log` and a snippet from `/var/log/one/oned.log` around the time of VM creation failure?

Kind Regards,  
Anton Todorov
