You can add it in to a running ovirt cluster, it just isn’t as automatic. First you need
to enable Gluster in at the cluster settings level for a new or existing cluster. Then
either install/reinstall your nodes, or install gluster manually and add vdsm-gluster
packages. You can create a stand alone gluster server set this way, you don’t need any
vddm packages, but then you have to create volumes manually. Once you’ve got that done,
you can create bricks and volumes in the GUI or by hand, and then add a new storage domain
and start using it. There may be ansible for some of this, but I haven’t done it in a
while and am not sure what’s available there.

I currently have 3 nodes, one is the engine node and 2 Centos 7 hosts, and I plan to add
another Centos 7 KVM host once I get all the vm's migrated. I have san storage plus
the raid 5 internal disks. All OS are installed on mirrored SAS raid 1. I want to use the
raid 5 vd's as exports, ISO and use the 4TB iscsi for the vm's to run on. The
iscsi has snapshots hourly and over write weekly.
So here is my question: I want to add glusterfs, but after further reading, that should
have been done in the initial setup. I am not new to Linux, but new to Ovirt and need to
know if I can implement glusterfs now or if it's a start from scratch situation. I
really don't want to start over but would like the redundancy.
Any advice is appreciated.
