Hi Rajshree,

The vmware_wsdl_location needs to be set only if you want to over ride the
default location it is hosted on vCenter server. Normally you would never
need to set this.

Regarding reboot of instance. Once the volume is attached it is presented
to the VM as a new block device. You would have to "rescan for new
hardware" from within the VM. This command is very OS specific. If you are
running an Ubuntu VM then you could look at this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZtxevA0VpU for the commands to rescan. Hope
that helps.

Thanks,
Subbu
