Re: [ovirt-users] Update NFS storage of the HE server

Simone, thanks for replying, According to the documentation, global mode seems to be a superset of local mode. Does setting to local mode maintenance on all hosts in the cluster really bring any benefits?

- global - All high-availability agents in the cluster are disabled from monitoring the state of the engine virtual machine. The global maintenance mode must be applied for any setup or upgrade operations that require the engine to be stopped, such as upgrading to a later version of oVirt. - local - The high-availability agent on the host issuing the command is disabled from monitoring the state of the engine virtual machine. The host is exempt from hosting the engine virtual machine while in local maintenance mode; if hosting the engine virtual machine when placed into this mode, the engine will be migrated to another host, provided there is a suitable contender. The local maintenance mode is recommended when applying system changes or updates to the host.

Setting also local maintenance mode on the involved hosts is a good idea. > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users(a)ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users >
