No such file or directory error from install-nsx-t task #10

Closed tkrausjr closed 6 years ago

tkrausjr commented 6 years ago

I am receiving an error with the Install-nsx-t section of the pipeline when it goes to deploy the NSX Manager OVA – I am doing this with the OVA downloaded to /home/concourse on the machine where I run the Install Container(s). This is a fairly vanilla installation so not sure what the issue is.

BTW – Highlighted below does not look right to me. Should there be two backslashes in the VC heirarchy --@10.173.13.81//Datacenter/host/Nested-PKS/ ?

I think I see the issue now. If I look in /home/concourse , some files are being generated.

r```oot@ubu01-jumphost:/home/concourse# ll total 6254552 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 17 21:17 ./ drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 17 20:19 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1699 Oct 17 21:17 docker-compose.yml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 358 Oct 17 21:17 generate-keys.sh* drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 17 12:53 keys/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7606 Oct 17 21:08 nsx_pipeline_config.yml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6368081920 Oct 16 17:21 nsx-unified-appliance-2.3.0.0.0.10085405.ova -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 156 Oct 17 21:17 pipeline_config_internal.yml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 36536690 Oct 17 21:17 VMware-ovftool-4.3.0-10104578-lin.x86_64.bundle

If I look inside the pipeline_config_internal.yml (That I did not create). It shows the wrong name for the nsx-unified-appliance- Its showing the NSX 2.2 version but I downloaded 2.3 into /home/concourse and changed the parameter in my nsx_pipeline_config.yml  file.  So what is changing this entry in this file.

less pipeline_config_internal.yml

ovftool_file_name: VMware-ovftool-4.3.0-10104578-lin.x86_64.bundle ova_file_name: nsx-unified-appliance-2.2.0.0.0.8680778.ova nsx_t_pipeline_branch: master

Hi @tkrausjr The container will attempt to download ova and ovftool if either one is missing. In your case could it be the case where you didn't have ovftool under /home/concourse? Now that you have both files, destroy and rerun the container. Make sure in your param file nsx_pipeline_config.yml you don't have the parameters ovftool_file_name and ova_file_name. They are supposed to be internal parameters and hidden.

Doing all of the but my PARAMATERs file (nsx_pipeline_config.yml) does have the two parameters set for OVA tool and NSX Manager. Ill try commenting them out and rerun.

@tkrausjr Debugged on your env and found the issue. The nsx manager was up which caused the pipeline to not install ovftool. It's address now in https://github.com/vmware/nsx-t-datacenter-ci-pipelines/pull/11.

Closing the issue since fix is already in. Let me know if the issue resurfaces.
