Description

Configuration: Xenserver 6.2, secondary storage on a Windows 2012R2 server.
Problem:
Xenserver can not mount secondary storage.

Creating an instance from a downloaded template fails, and the following gets logged in Xenserver's SMlog:

Oct 18 10:08:32 xentest3 SM: [32717] ['mount', '10.0.0.14:/secondary', '/var/run/sr-mount/2cf2caba-fa75-7f24-394b-215164e805e4']
Oct 18 10:08:32 xentest3 SM: [32717] FAILED in util.pread: (rc 32) stdout: '', stderr: 'mount: 10.0.0.14:/secondary failed, reason given by ser
ver: No such file or directory

manually running the command " mount 10.0.0.14:/secondary ...." fails too with the same error.
manually running "mount 10.0.0.14:secondary ..." succeeds. (Also works like this: 10.0.0.14:\secondary)

By the way, when mounting a cifs ISO share from Xencenter, the following is logged in SMlog:

Oct 18 21:24:40 xentest3 SM: [29493] ['mount.cifs', '//10.0.0.14/secondary', '/var/run/sr-mount/3bbea389-cffb-9a0e-54eb-435960a248f8', '-o', 'credentials=/tmp/8a2ff51d-2842-499e-b3da-9bff521a4dd8']
Oct 18 21:24:40 xentest3 SM: [29493] pread SUCCESS

So I think either mount.cifs should be used, or the path of the share should start with "\".
I am not sure if this is a Cloudstack or Xenserver related bug.
