Hi,
We ran into a requirement where we need to mark a DataCenter or Cluster
as remote. This is for the feature Gluster Geo-replication management -
where the same oVirt instance will be managing both the master volume
and as well as the remote site volume
The reason we want to call out a Datacenter as remote, is to ensure that
the polling frequency on this is different from one that is co-located.
Is there a similar requirement for virtualization?
thanks

I thought in the gluster view there are no DCs, only clusters?
(actually, i wonder if we shouldn't consider the same for the virt use
case, and deprecate the DC entity, though that would be a major effort
and not sure worth it).
to your question, yes. there is a similar use case for virt - flagging a
DC or Cluster and Storage as remote for a DR use case.
though i don't think anyone spent cycles on modeling that
