(Re-adding the list, adding Sandro)
The plan for hyper-convergence is to require at least 3 hosts, so that you
have a replica-3 cluster storage.
Perhaps we should reconsider allowing local storage with hosted-engine.
This will prevent HA, but will fit into the place of current allinone
usage. The next stage will be that users will ask to migrate this local
storage to shared one (or even gluster :-) ).
For a 2-cluster HA setup we do not have, or plan to have AFAIK, any
official support, but you can have a look at DRBD [1].
