Hello, everyone!
Do you know how to solve failure to clone ECS due to the large capacity of the disks? Don't worry, the post will share with you!
Issue Description
ECS Cloning failure due to timeout duration allows for the process is too short.
Handling Process
Before proceed to modify the ECS cloning timeout duration, ensure that ECS cloning speed has been modified accordingly to the support guide as below:
https://support.huawei.com/hedex/hdx.do?docid=EDOC1100105336&id=ECS_ug_000150_3&lang=en
Recommend only change the value to only 3 (no service impact) as shown below:

If the issue still persists and unable to perform ECS cloning especially with a large disk size. Proceed further in the steps below:
1. ECS cloning failure was mainly because the size of the disk is way too big, 3200GB. Hence, the process doesn't manage to finish in time due to the timeout period is too short (1080seconds), which is as shown below:

2. In order to resolve this issue, log in to the management VM, CPT-SRV01, and CPT-SRV02 (Remark: You can check the IP or VNC to this VM through ServiceOM portal) and manually modify the value under the path of /opt/apicom/tomcat/taskmgr/WEB-INF/classes/ to 8460 seconds.
ecs.taskProperty.listenCount.collectSubJobStatus=8460
ecs.taskProperty.listenCount.cloneServer=8460
ecs.taskProperty.listenInterval.cloneServer=10

3. After that, reboot the apicom services by killing it.
ps -ef|grep apicom
kill -9 apicom PID
Root Cause
ECS Cloning timeout duration allows for the process is too short.
Solution
Modify the ECS cloning speed as well as ECS Cloning timeout duration.
This is my solution, how about yours? Go ahead and share it with us!
