While i realize it’s not ideal, I created an NFS export on the single node for demonstration purposes. Very simple to do. At some point, we’ll be moving the storage to a NAS.

Can anyone tell me why a single node building using a locally hosted NFS server isn’t good for this use case?

Thanks Simone,

I am currently trying to go through that as I found a wiki page that talked about single node HCI,

Is there anyway to leave Gluster off the table and just use a local on host Storage Domain for simplicity?


Thanks
Brian

I have a question regarding installing a single node and then running the self-hosted engine on it.

I would like to keep this as simple as possible and am running into an issue with where to tell the installer to place the engine.  It asks me to choose a shared storage technology(gfs,nfs, iscsi) and i dont want to rely on anything outside of this single box to provide storage.  I would like to add another volume (LVM) as a local storage domain to be used for this as well as all other VMs to be run on this all in one box.

Is there some secret sauce to getting this installer to choose a local location rather than a shared one?

Yes, a replica 1 hyper-converged gluster volume.
