cannot connect to host

[ayrus]

Hi

I ve been working with VDDK programming API for the past couple of weeks. I encounter the following error when i am trying to connect the the managed disk on the esx server from another VM running on the same esx.

I issued the following command in windows xp: vixDiskLibSample.exe -info -host <host ip> -user root -password "1234" "[Storage1]/test/test.vmdk"

It worked fine with some warnings. like "host certificate chain is not complete" failed to read registry value .

"certificate verification is disabled so connection will proceed despite the error". And it showed the disk info .

I tried the same command in my ubuntu linux. (which is actually a VM in the same esx)

./vix-dislib-sample -info -host <host ip> -user root -password "1234" "[Storage1]/test/test.vmdk"

Getting the following error.

• INFO: VixDiskLibVim: TicketLogin

• (process:6770): WARNING **: VixDiskLibVim: Login failure - VixError = 0.

Error: 4650 Cannot connect to host

PLZ HELP ME TO GET OUT OF THIS.

Thanx in advance.

Can you please make sure the libraries that are loaded are from vddk, (you can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /lib/vmware-vix-disklib/lib{32|64} )?

Thanks

Hi

Everything set in LD_LIBRARY_PATH . Infact I can see the info of hosted disk (local disk). But wen i try to get info abt remote disk . it shows that error. Works perfectly fine in windows. 😮

Thanks in advance.
