The compute nodes have 8 hot-swap hard drive slots, with each only having 2 slots occupied in a hardware RAID array level one for the hypervisor to live on. =20 Would it be possible for me to set up each compute node with a second array in the remaining 6 hot-swap slots, and utilize that new space for a nice fault tolerant GlusterFS storage array ? =20 That schema is called hyper-converged.

=20 Take care that currently it's not production ready. =20
=20 1. Would the system allow me to add the Gluster storage to the existing datacenter/cluster that is currently using iSCSI ? =20 2. Would I be able to configure all aspects of the Gluster environment(except the hardware RAID array)through the GUI ? =20 3. What hardware RAID level would be optimal for this configuration ? (RHEV documentation says RAID 6 is "Mandatory") =20 4. Will the system support live migration between storage domains ? =20 I'm reading through the gluster documentation now to get a better understanding of it's inner workings. Is there a good source for Gluster on oVirt that i can reference as well ? =20 _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users =20
