Hey folks,
for production use quality it is recommended to have backend (storage)
and front end seperated. Let' assume:
- 85.0.0.0/24 public IP block
- 10.100.0.0/24 private IPs for DC internal usage
- 10.200.0.0/24 private IPs for storage only LAN
and running, as per recommendation 3 nodes:
- node01:
- fqdn: node01.dc-example.com
- fqdn storage: node02.storage.example.com
- no public IP
- 10.100.0.1 primary IP
- 10.200.0.1 storage IP
- node02:
- fqdn: node02.dc-example.com
- fqdn storage: node02.storage.example.com
- no public IP
- 10.100.0.2 primary IP
- 10.200.0.2 storage IP
- node03:
- fqdn: node03.dc-example.com
- fqdn storage: node02.storage.example.com
- no public IP
- 10.100.0.3 primary IP
- 10.200.0.3 storage IP
The storage network is its own physical network with 10gig that only
connects those three servers. How can I specify which IP to use for
storage, which for frontend traffic?
I am assuming this as the controller and all admins should be able to
reach the nodes via frontend, which is not the storage one.
Okay, I am lost. Whats the real solution here?
Or is "frontend" no-ip, just VM traffic and "backend" is the 10gig
storage "Only" where all the FQDN reside?
I am unsure about the meaning of "frontend" and "backend" in this context.
In oVirt there is the concept of network roles, please find details in
I recommend to configure only a single interface each host with
before adding the host to oVirt, and keep this as management network.
If hosted engine is used, the network connection for storage has to be configured already on the first host,
before the hosted engine deployment is started.
After the hosts are added to oVirt, I recommend to create a logical network without VM usage in oVirt,
attach this network to the 10gig NIC on each host, and configure an IP address from
If you storage is gluster, the related network role should be assigned to this logical network.
The Engine's VM (or the Engine host, if not using hosted Engine) should have a network interface on
If you want to enable users from outside
to access spice or VNC consoles of the VMs, each host requires to be attached to a new logical
network with the role "Display" and an IP address from
Does this answer your question?
Thanks for clarification,
-Chris.
