Till now vdsm uses python blivet for getting the device tree information. python3-blivet supports only py3; python2-blivet1 supports only py2. You may re-implement vdsm.gluster.storagedev with python3-blivet if six.PY3 and keep the current code if six.PY2. > > I am not sure if blivet is compatible with python 3 so I had two propositions which I want some advice on. > > 1) Using lsblk and parsing the output I'd do this if parsing lsblk is simpler than calling python3-blivet > 2) Using ansible modules locally in the vdsm hosts. Do you plan to parse their output? How are they implemented?
