[ovirt-users] Re: Ovirt + Gluster : How do I gain access to the file systems of the VMs

Hi Sahina, Thanks for your reply, I can copy the files off without issue. Using either a remote mount gluster, or just use the node and scp the files to where I want them. I was asking how to/do I mount the VM's disk in a way to be able to pull/modify files that are on the HDD of the VM.
