First of all, thanks to Tom for hands on and psychological support
offlist :)
I have successfully created a local VDI, a VM and a VBD. I am stuck
with the following error:
xmlrpc failed! ErrorDescription: coercing to Unicode: need string or
buffer, NoneType found -> INTERNAL_ERROR
Detailed procedure log:
The constructors used to create the VDI was
(54b789c9-969a-dee5-32b7-94ea46c61b7b is the local one you can abuse
to access local files):
my %vdi_constructor2 = ( 'name_label' => 'generic label',
'name_description' => '',
'virtual_size' => '4194304000',
'SR' => '54b789c9-969a-dee5-32b7-94ea46c61b7b',
'other_config' => ('location' =>
'/root/test_image_070710_15'),
);
The VM constructor:
my %vm_constructor = ( 'name_label' => '070710_15',
'name_description' => 'mein ding halt',
'user_version' => '123',
'is_a_template' => '0',
'auto_power_on' => '0',
'memory_static_max' => '512000000',
'memory_static_min' => '512000000',
'memory_dynamic_max' => '512000000',
'memory_dynamic_min' => '512000000',
'VCPUs_max' => '1',
'VCPUs_at_startup' => '1',
);
my %vbd_constructor = ( 'VDI' => '844b162a-5a04-c4f9-8196-027de5826c95',
'VM' => 'd4a27090-1205-76f4-06a3-89d23c677adf',
'device' => '/dev/sda',
'bootable' => '1',
);
This results in the following:

When trying to VM.start the machine with
VM.start, $session_ref, $vm_ref, 0
I get

I have no idea what else I could look at or try. Any help appreciated.
If you need more info, ask and I will happy to provide it :)
