<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi, Donny,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the link.<br>
<br>
Am I understood correctly that I'm need at least 3-node system to
run in failover mode? So far I'm plan to deploy only 2 nodes,
either with hosted either with bare metal engine.<br>
<br>
<i>The key thing to keep in mind regarding host maintenance and
downtime is that this <b>converged three node system relies on
having at least two of the nodes up at all times</b>. If you
bring down two machines at once, you'll run afoul of the
Gluster quorum rules that guard us from split-brain states in
our storage, the volumes served by your remaining host will go
read-only, and the VMs stored on those volumes will pause and
require a shutdown and restart in order to run again.</i><br>
<br>
What happens if in 2-node glusterfs system (with hosted engine)
one node goes down?<br>
Bare metal engine can manage this situation, but I'm not sure
about hosted engine.<br>

<div>Pretty good basic guidance. </div>

</div>
<div>Also with software defined storage its recommended their
are at least two "storage" nodes and one arbiter node to
maintain quorum. </div>

I'm going to setup relatively simple 2-node system with
oVirt 4.1,<br>
GlusterFS, and several VMs running.<br>
Each node going to be installed on dual Xeon system with
single RAID 5.<br>
<br>
oVirt node installer uses relatively simple default
partitioning scheme.<br>
Should I leave it as is, or there are better options?<br>
I never used GlusterFS before, so any expert opinion is very
welcome.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
Andrei<br>
