Re: [Engine-devel] [vdsm] Storage Device Management in VDSM and oVirt

This seems interesting. I am interested in pursuing this further and helping contribute to the vdsm lsm integration. lsm is still in the early stages, but i feel its the right time to start influencing it so that vdsm integration can be smooth. My interest mainly lies in how external storage array can be integrated into oVirt/VDSM and help oVirt exploit the array offload features as part of the virtualization stack. I didn't find any oVirt wiki page on this topic, tho' there is a old mailing list thread on vdsm lsm integration, which when read brings up more issues to discuss :) How does storage repo engine and possible vdsm services framework ( i learnt about these in my brief chat with Saggie some time back) play a role here ? Can "Provisioning Storage" itself be like a high level service, with gluster and lsm exposing storage services, which vdsm can enumerate and send to oVirt GUI, is that the idea ? Is there any wiki page on this topic which lists the todos on this front, which I can start looking at ?
