Bala, is there a means to select, for each node, which IP address is to
be used for replication? AFAICT we use the host fqdn, which most
probably resolves to the ovirtmgmt device.
what is "replication verb in the UI"? Inside UI when I click "create
volume" and then "add Bricks" buttons I can only select "Server"
that
in my case is a drop down menu containing only ip addresses of my 2
hypervisors....
Or simply do you mean development steps to integrate this missing
functionality in oVirt with steps 1. and 2.?
