Hi all, I try to put my iso domain in maintenance mode but engine tells me that some vms use it with an attached iso. I detached them from their respective vms without rebooting them, but the issue and the message are still the same. What can I do?

------=_Part_39271_993079077.1425311733786 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I have setup up 2 hosts, host1 with hosted engine, and on host 2, since I have a spare disk, I want to setup a glusterfs domain storage. I'm using Centos7 and ovirt 3.5.1. The 2 hosts and hosted engine are up and running. How can I configure the glusterfs storage? I installed glusterfs server on host2: glusterfs-api-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-fuse-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-libs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-rdma-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-server-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 glusterfs-cli-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64 Do I need first configure a Volume with a brick? I tried that but no success. Also tried to ad a Data domains of type glusterfs but no success. What am I missing?

Want to Be Mentor?
by Brian Proffitt 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

oVirt is pleased to announce it will be participating in the May-August 2015 round of Outreachy, organized by the GNOME Foundation, Software Freedom Conservancy, and Red Hat. Outreachy helps women (cis and trans) and genderqueer get involved in free and open source software. The program provides a supportive community for beginning to contribute any time throughout the year and offers focused internship opportunities twice a year with a number of free software organizations. If anyone has a project they'd like to add to the list of ideas at[1], there is still time. Applications will open tomorrow. Right now we are confirmed for at least one intern, but there should be funding for at least one more. Thanks!

How to import existing DC with replicated glusterfs
by Arman Khalatyan 01 Mar '15

01 Mar '15

Hi, I try to import existing DC with replicated glusterfs in Ovirt 3.5.1 on centos 7.0. Usually in the normal case I set the mount points in the fstab as: server01:DATA /data glusterfs defaults,_netdev,log-level=WARNING,backupvolfile-server=server02 In the import dialog the mount options are grayed. If I put my server01:DATA everything works as far as server01 is there. Can I set somewhere the fail-over ip adress for the next replica? thanks, Arman. *********************************************************** Dr. Arman Khalatyan eScience -SuperComputing Leibniz-Institut für Astrophysik Potsdam (AIP) An der Sternwarte 16, 14482 Potsdam, Germany ***********************************************************
