Description of problem:
SmartState Analysis on Datastore and VM do not work when the back-end storage is of type NFS41. I am running vSphere 6 with VDDK 6 and CF4.1.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.6.0.13.20160624114606_13a9153
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Perform a SmartState Analysis on a Datastore of type NFS41
2. Perform a SmartState Analysis on a VM located on a back end storage of type NFS41
Actual results:
Failure with the following error message:
- For datastore:
'Datastore "Shared-NFS": Error during 'scan': Action not supported for Datastores type [NFS41], [Shared-NFS] with id: [10000000000001]'
- For VM:
'Vm storage type [NFS41] unsupported [10000000000002], aborting job [9e19605c-44fa-11e6-bfca-005056b10841]'
Expected results:
SmartState Analysis should work with NFS back-end.
Additional info:
After troubleshooting with roliveri, it appears that this datastore type is not included in the list of supported types. Modifying the following files to add NFS41 type fixed the issue:
/var/www/miq/vmdb/app/models/job_proxy_dispatcher.rb
/var/www/miq/vmdb/app/models/storage.rb
/var/www/miq/vmdb/app/models/vm_or_template.rb
I am also experiencing this issue and would like to up-vote it.
Is that any update from Dev?
Will this be included in the CloudForms 4.2 release (CFME 5.7)?

The PR has been created and now under review.
SmartState Analysis works fine with NFS41 backend running on vSphere 6 with VDDK 6.
Perform a SmartState Analysis on a Datastore of type NFS41 as well as on a VM located on a backend storage of type NFS41.
