aelsantex · ‎03-27-2012

Hello,

I have a vmware datacenter and i have try to mount a disk from a source linux machine (vpnssllog) to another linux machine (webapplnx) the OS version on this machines are the same.

i create a scripts and i run it:

root@webapplnx:~$ vi vmMount.sh

#!/bin/bash

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib/vmware-vix-disklib/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

host="vceprdwin.corp.scmgroup.com"

user="administrator"

passwdfile="/root/vmpwd.txt"

part_no="0"

mount_dir="/mnt/xxx"

img_path="[rimini_prod_vmfs_cml3850_03] vpnssllog/vpnssllog.vmdk"

inv_path="SCM Group Rimini\vm\webapplnx"

vmware-mount -v "${inv_path}" -u "${user}" -h "${host}" -F "${passwdfile}" "${img_path}" "${part_no}" "${mount_dir}"

root@webapplnx:~$

root@webapplnx:~$ ./vmMount.sh

Failed to open disk: The virtual machine cannot be found (4000)

Failed to mount disk '[rimini_prod_vmfs_cml3850_03] vpnssllog/vpnssllog.vmdk': Cannot open the virtual disk

root@webapplnx:~$

I take inv_path from the MOB (name field) and img_path from Edit settings of the virtual machine.

From the log i take this messages:

VixDiskLib: config options: libdir '/usr/lib/vmware', tmpDir '/tmp/vmware-root'.
