[ovirt-users] Re: Hyperconverged setup questions

Hi, As a first setup, you can go with a 3 nodes HCI and having the data volume in a replica 3 setup. Afterwards, if you want to expand HCI ( compute and storage too) you can add sets of 3 nodes, and the data volume will automatically become replicated-distributed. Safely, you can add sets of 3 nodes up to 12 nodes per HCI. You can also add "compute only nodes" and not extending storage too. This can be done by adding nodes one by one. As an example, I have an implementation where are 3 hyperconverged nodes, they form a replica 3 volume, and later i have added the 4th node to the cluster which only adds ram and cpu, whilts consuming storage from the existing 3 nodes based volume. Hope this helps.
