Ian, knara,
<br />
<br />success! I got it working using the two-dash-notation and ip addresses. Shure this is the most relyable way, even with local hosts file.
<br />
<br />In my case, the hosted vm dies and takes some time to be running again. Is it possible to have the vm surviving the switch to the backup-volfile-server? 
<br />
<br />Thanks &amp; regards

            Looks like your conf is incorrect for mnt option.

    Hi Ian,
<br />&gt; 

    Â Â Â  
<br />&gt; 

    Â Â Â  mnt_option should 
be
    mnt_options=backup-volfile-servers=&lt;IP1&gt;:&lt;IP2&gt; and 
this
    is how we test it.
<br />&gt; 
<br />&gt; 

    Thanks
<br />&gt; 

    kasturi.

                  thank you. I tested and it seems not to work, 
even
                  after rebooting the current mount does not show up 
the
                  mnt_options nor the switch over 
works.

<pre>Hi,

how do i make the hosted_storage aware of gluster server failure? In --deploy i 

cannot
provide backup-volfile-servers. In 
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/<wbr />hosted-engine.conf 

there 

is
an mnt_options line, but i 

read

that this settings get lost during deployment on seconday 

servers.

Is there an official way to deal with that? Should this option be set manualy on 

all 

nodes?

Hi,

&gt; 

&gt; 

    Â Â  I think in the above patch they are just   hiding the the 

query
    for mount_options but i think all the code is still present and 

you
    should not loose mount options during additional host 

deployment.
    For more info you can refer [1]. 

&gt; 

    Â Â Â  

&gt; 

    

    Â Â Â  You can set this option manually on all nodes by 

editing
    /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/<wbr />hosted-engine.conf. Following steps 

will
    help you to achieve 
this.

&gt; 

&gt; 

    1) Move each host to maintenance, edit the 

file
    
'/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/<wbr />hosted-engine.conf'.

&gt; 

    2) set mnt_options 

=
    
backup-volfile-servers=&lt;<wbr />gluster_ip2&gt;:&lt;gluster_ip3&gt;

&gt; 

    3) restart the services 'systemctl restart ovirt-ha-agent' 

;
    'systemctl restart 
ovirt-ha-broker'

&gt; 

    4) Activate the 
node.

&gt; 

&gt; 

    Repeat the above steps for all the nodes in the 
cluster.

&gt;
