I’m playing around with shared disks in ovirt to allow a couple of vm’s to access the same data. I created a new disk that is shareable and attached it to one of my CentOS vms but I don’t understand how to actually make use of the shared disk. It does not show up as a mounted disk on the Centos VM.

If it shows in fdisk -l, you should be able to mount it (after formatting of course). Add it to fstab if you want it to happen automatically

How do I actually use this shared disk from within my VM, or am I mis-understanding its purpose?

You attach such disks to multiple VMs at the same time, and use a clustered FS to mitigate access and locking.

Thanks!
