[ovirt-users] Re: what kind of managed block can oVirt manage ?

Thank you very much! I read the documentation and found out that you are one of the authors of this feature! I guess I asked the right person. After installed the CinderLib as you mentioned in the second link, do I still need to run engine setup and integrate CinderLib to use Managed Block ?

Can ceph be connected to a Managed Block page by simply linking to cenderlib files without accessing the actual openstack? I am very interested in this section, can you send some related guide documents? Thank you very much!
