I use Linux software RAID under oVirt just fine. I'm not using oVirt
Node though (I just installed CentOS and then installed oVirt). Note
that I have an iSCSI SAN for VM storage - things might be different if
you are planning to use the local disks for VMs (local storage or
Gluster).
Hello Chris,
On non-node installation I can’t see any problems as you said, but due to the appliance
nature of oVirt Node I don’t know if this would be a supported scenario. Anyway you raised
a good point: local storage. I’m not needing this, perhaps someone on the list will be
using this feature.
