I like playing with shiny new toys and VDO is one :-)
Actually with that it shouldn't matter if whatever is put on top actually has spare
allocation in the file format or just blocks with zeros, which makes for a reusable HDD in

how I got around the 4K issue.
Alas, plenty of qemu-img imports still fail with the ENOENT error on the 3nHCI gluster.
From what I am reading between the lines, oVirt would be rock solid, if somebody
didn't want to compete with Nutanix and had put Gluster underneath...
With a 25% success rate at trying to transfer VMs from 4.3 to 4.4 I am... in no position
to migrate, really.
Trying the backup domains next, but their documentation is pretty awful if non-existent.
