</div></div>Hi,<br>
most of the current work is focused in hyperconverged using hosted engine and<br>
this includes the installation and a few other features such as not fencing hypervisors<br>
to avoid killing running bricks.<br>
If you do not want to use hosted engine, then you should be able to create bricks<br>
and manage them as a gluster volume which your setup should be able to work with.<br>
If you do not use HA and/or fencing you should be mostly ok with this use case.<br>
<br>
Anything specific you're looking for?<br>
<br>
