I now have a happy gluster volume called share. Now I am lost as to how to use that volume. Do I have to change the Default NFS storage type? How do I get this bad boy mounted? I spent 2 weeks tiring to get glusterfs working with no luck. However I was able to get gluster nfs working. Here are the steps I needed to do.
Are there any docs on direct gluster? No. I got close to getting it to work but I was having issues with Fedora 17 crashing every 10 to 12 hours and that might have been why I couldn't get that last 1%. I did pretty much the same steps to get really close to getting the glusterfs structure to work.
1) Mount the volume outside of ovirt. mount -t nfs ipofonenode:/volumename /temp/share/name or mount -t glusterfs ipofonenode:/volumename /temp/share/name 2) chown -R 36.36 /temp/share/name 3) umount /temp/share/name 4) Added a new Postfix gluster fs domain with the Path of: localhost:/volumename and the type of glusterfs. It mounted fine but I couldn't get it to activate.
1) I added the following option to the volume. Might only need the 1st one but I have all 3 of them set on my working system.a) nfs.nlm off b) nfs.register-with-portmap on c) nfs.addr-namelookup off 2) Mount the volume outside of ovirt. mount -t nfs ipofonenode:/volumename /temp/share/name 3) chown -R 36.36 /temp/share/name. 4) umount /temp/share/name 5) Added a new NFS domain with the NFS Export Path: localhost:/volumename
I was then able to active the NFS based Data Center and add working VM's
Problme I am running into is that I need to add -o mountproto=tcp,vers=3 because it looks like it is defaulting to udp and gluster NFS does not support that. Try editing file /etc/nfsmount.conf on each node and add the following.
[ NFSMount_Global_Options ] Defaultvers=3 Nfsvers=3 Thanks Robert
