All,
I am trying to add a physical drive to Ovirt. For instance, my physical machine has 3 extra hard drives attached and I want to add it directly instead of through Gluster or iSCSI. Is this possible?
I tried using POSIX by creating an xfs filesystem on /dev/sde1 and tried to add that as a POSIX datastore but it fails in trying to mount the filesystem.
Not sure I entirely understand the question. You want to add the disks of your host to a VM? or you want to add those disks to your storage domain?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Bryan

I guess you're looking for this feature: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/mixed-ty= pes-data-center/ however you need to do this via a shared DC type as mentioned in the above link.

however you need to do this via a shared DC type as mentioned in the above link.
Some bugs tracking this feature are mentioned here:
This bug is not related to mixed types data center, that feature is about supporting both file based and block based storage types in same data center. The feature is completed for long time and we don't have any bugs about it.
However I'm not quite sure if this is fully implemented yet.
Mixing local and shared storage is not implemented and even not planned yet. Nir

It is possible only if your data center is using local storage. If you use shared storage, you must expose the disks using nfs/gluster/iscsi. Nir
