This means that the glance store driver failed to lookup the datacenter
configured in the vmware_datastores option of glance-api.conf .

>From the official documentation for that option :-

*vmware_datastores allows administrators to*
*configure multiple datastores to save glance image in the VMware store
backend.*
*The required format for the option is:*
*<datacenter_path>:<datastore_name>:<optional_weight>.*

*where datacenter_path*
*is the inventory path to the datacenter where the datastore is located.*

One of the common reason for your error is the following misconfiguration:-

If you are familiar with vCenter, check if the specified datacenter is under
inventory folders and if so, check whether the vmware_datastores option in
glance-api.conf references that folder in the inventory path.

e.g if your datacenter 'dc1' is under 'folder1' in vCenter, the
vmware_datastores option must be something like
'folder1/dc1:<datastore_name>:100'


Thanks
