Hello,
I'm using the DNS Balancing gluster hostname for years now, not only with
ovirt. No software so far had a problem. And setting the hostname to only
one Host of course breaks one advantage of a distributed/replicated Cluster
File-System like loadbalancing the connections to the storage and/or
failover if one host is missing. In earlier ovirt it wasn't possible to
specify something like "backupvolfile-server" for a High-Available
hosted-engine rollout (which I use).
As far as i know, backup-volfile-servers is a recommended way to keep you
filesystem mountable in case of server failure. While fs is mounted,
gluster will automatically provide failover. And you definitely can
specify backup-volfile-servers
in the storage domain configuration.
I already used live migration in such a setup. This was done with
pure
libvirt setup/virsh and later using OpenNebula.
Yes, but it was based on a accessing gluster volume as a mount filesystem,
not
directly... And i would like to exclude that from list of possible
causes.
