Re: [ovirt-users] New user intro & some questions

The meaning of "support" is important here -- support from whom? It's true that there's no gluster+virt SKU of the RHEV downstream project. All configurations of ovirt proper are self-supported, or community- supported, and what we choose to support is up to us individuals. However, gluster + virt on the same nodes does work -- even w/ management through the engine. I do use gluster on my virt nodes, but I don't manage them w/ the engine, because, afaik, there isn't a way to have gluster and virt on separate networks this way, so I just manage gluster from the gluster cli. It's true, oVirt is happiest w/ separate machines for everything, and a rock-solid san of some sort, etc., but that's not the only way, and as you point out, hardware isn't free.
