Hi Pavel,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">engine is running on one of the hosts. We don’t have HA for host, but I think it is OK.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We used a dedicated NFS for the hosted-engine on that host.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Best,<br class="">

<div class="PlainText">Hi,<br class="">
<br class="">
We have all nodes like you (5 currently), and have them setup as NFS instead of local storage.<br class="">
<br class="">
You have slight overhead because it's NFS, but not so much, and it allows you to migrate VMs and disks, even if it's a manual disk, eg no HA will be possible.<br class="">
<br class="">
So yeah, to me, it's a good option given your setup.<br class="">
<br class="">
Best,<br class="">
