Did something go wrong during deployment ?

Was anything changed post deployment.

I think a support ticket would be needed to get to the bottom of it,

It may be best just to double check the configuration and redeploy it.

Hi. Iam also experiencing the same issue witha single node Simplivity 380 G10 running OmniCube Version 4.1.3. Deployment completes successfully but Create Datastore fails with " NFS mount omni.cube.io:1321c2aa-f98a-4307-827d-c7c6673d2623 failed: Unable to connect to NFS server" error.

Anyone who had the same issue and successfully resolved it, please let us know the fix.

Re: Error trying to 'createDatastores' Unable to connect to NFS server

For me it was the subnet used for the storage network that caused the issue. I redeployed using a /24 network and that resolved the issue.

Re: Error trying to 'createDatastores' Unable to connect to NFS server

Can we change the subnet for management and storage, per checking on the monitoring tab.

management - 255.255.255.248

storage - 255.255.255.0

had the same issue can't create SimpliVity datastore for Omnistack 4.1.3 showing error for "An error occured during host configuration. Operation failed, diagnostic report: Failed DNS lookup: hostname: omni.cube.io, error: -2
