Hi, As per the latest ViPR support matrix, only ScaleIO 1.30 and 1.31 are supported with ViPR 2.2 and 2.3. Regards

Hello! I have exactly the same issue (java NullPointerException) on ScaleIO and ViPR on VMware vSphere 6.0! I reinstalled the two solutions without results. Always fail task: CREATE EXPORT GROUP (create export group operation).

Andrew291 · Answer

Which version of scaleio are you using?  1.30 or 1.31?  ViPR 2.2 or 2.3?

littleboy1 · Answer

ScaleIO version is 1.32 and VIPR version is 2.3.The ScaleIO is deployed by VMware plugin in Vcenter 6.0.

littleboy1 · Answer

yeah,during the CREATE EXPORT GROUP task. I can't find out why. The NullPointerException, how could this coming out?

Grypa · Answer

I get this error on ScaleIO 1.32 and ViPR 2.2 and 2.3...

littleboy1 · Answer

Oh,I am sorry. I didn't read the document about the ViPR support matrix.Do you know when the VIPR will support the ScaleIO 1.32?

littleboy1 · Answer

ViPR Support Matrix - REV 14c.pdf We should read this document firstly.

I have build the ScaleIO 1.31. Can create the volume for a host. But it can not create the volume and datastore for a cluster in Vcenter. It failed during creating the volume. Here is the log message:

And I want to know where can i find the detail log?

thank you

Andrew291 · Answer

check out the controllersvc.log /opt/storageos/logs....

littleboy1 · Answer

here is the log info.But i can not find the error from here, Could you help me ?

Andrew291 · Answer

Doesn't look like a lot of information in this log.  Have you tried with other vcenter clusters or hosts?  So basically you can export a volume to a vcenter cluster but just not a datastore?  Have you tried another datastore name?  Please provide as much detail as possible.  Providing full logs from the ViPR GUI would help us as well.  Is this a greenfield vcenter or does it have existing exports to these hosts/cluster?

littleboy1 · Answer

I am so sorry ,I have updated the log. The log file should be controllersvc.log, not be log2.txt. And I already know where was wrong. I just add a 'space' when i define a volume name.Then give out this error. Thank you so much .
