[02:44] <wallyworld> kelvinliu: here's a small vsphere fix https://github.com/juju/juju/pull/11800
[02:44] <kelvinliu> looking now
[02:55] <kelvinliu> wallyworld: so this fix is to fix the workaround of /MyFolder/MyDC/vm/juju-root
[02:55] <kelvinliu> but not fix the vm-fold sets to `juju-root`, right?
[03:00] <wallyworld> kelvinliu: i  used the same logic from their on site patch - it's just for handling  a vmfolder that is not a subpath of the DC folder
[03:00] <kelvinliu> dcfolders.VmFolder.InventoryPath == /MyDC/vm but
[03:01] <kelvinliu> the real dc folder is /MyFolder/MyDC/
[03:01] <wallyworld> yeah https://github.com/nobuto-m/juju/commit/26ab58c38fb3bc41905f8085c6939bc3628181b5
[03:01] <kelvinliu> yeah, I know
[03:01] <kelvinliu> that's just a workaround
[03:02] <wallyworld> the vmfolder should be able to point anyhwere though right?
[03:04] <kelvinliu> with current fix, if the vmfold sets to juju-root, we will still get the error `folder path "/MyDC/vm/juju-root" not found`
[03:04] <wallyworld> so they need to set the vmfolder correctly
[03:05] <wallyworld> if an absolute path is needed, they should provide that
[03:05] <wallyworld> or no?
[03:05] <kelvinliu> $ govc find | grep juju-root
[03:05] <kelvinliu> /MyFolder/MyDC/vm/juju-root
[03:06] <kelvinliu> vsphere API thinks the dc fold is /MyDC/vm/juju-root
[03:08] <kelvinliu> I think this might be fix for their particular issue with the workaround, but we will need find why the API tells the wrong datacentre path
[03:08] <kelvinliu> wallyworld: so we will just ask them to test ur branch or?
[03:10] <wallyworld> kelvinliu: yeah, we can ask them to test th edge snap. i thought juju just appended "jju-root" to whatever the folder ended up as?
[03:10] <kelvinliu> yeah, that's what Juju does currently
[03:11] <kelvinliu> the problem here is the root DC fold was wrong in the API
[03:11] <wallyworld> so i think this will be ok - they have the option of a relative or absolute path, their choice
[03:11] <wallyworld> i don't know why the DC fold was wrong
[03:12] <kelvinliu> wallyworld: did u see petro's comment?
[03:13] <kelvinliu> It seems govmomi is not returning the entire absolute path with
[03:13] <wallyworld> i did see them but don't understand the api enough
[03:13] <kelvinliu> [/MyFolder/]MyDC/vm/juju-root
[03:16] <kelvinliu> wallyworld: just approved to allow them to test it.
[03:16] <wallyworld> sgtm ty
[03:18] <kelvinliu> ty for the fix
