[ovirt-users] Re: Unclear how to add local (POSIX) storage

This is expected on oVirt, our multipath configuration is intentionally grabbing any device that multipath can work with, even if the device only has one path. The motivation is to be able to configure a system when only one path is available (maybe you have an hba/network/server issue), and once the other paths are available the system will use them transparently. To avoid this issue with local devices, you need to blacklist the device. Add this file: $ cat /etc/multipath/conf.d/local.conf blacklist { wwid "QEMU HARDDISK" }

Configuring NFS on some other machine is easy. I'm using another VM for this, so I can easily test negative flows like stopping or restarting the NFS server while it is being used by vms or storage operations. I'm using 2G alpine vm for this, it works fine even with 1G memory.
