Hi, I'm writing cause I working on hosted-engine deploy over fiber channel. If possible, I'd like to try it for developing purposes in a nested environment. So I thought it would be possible to simulate a SAN with LIO and a vn2vn FCoE connection using a couple of VirtIO devices. I had some troubles using fcoeadm over VirtIO but than I found your patch about libhbalinux and libudev. I applied it and it works or at least it seams to. Here I tracked what I did: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Self_Hosted_Engine_FC_Support Now the problem is that VDSM sees the FCoE device but it reports as failed: 'pathstatus': [{'lun': '0', 'physdev': 'sda', 'state': 'failed', 'type': 'FCP'}], and I'm not sure if it's really an issue with VDSM or if it's something with my FCoE setup. Did someone ever used VDSM with FCoE? thanks, Simone

Just to add some info, it seams to correctly work directly using the device (fdisk, mkfs, mount) while it doesn't seam to work with VDSM reporting some issue with multipathd on that device.

I never tried to use this setup, and I don't know if we support this. Maybe Federico can help with this? Nir
