[ovirt-users] Re: Trying to add a LUN to a host and use that, instead of Gluster, as the datastore for my VM's.

Manged to reverse it through the options.  Had to deactivate the custom local cluster. Now I have my GlusterFS back and want to try and add some local storage to each host under the same DC, Cluster and Storage Domain.  So effectively I will have two storage locations.  One on my GlusterFS and the other on the local storage I've just defined. Appears I can't make them coexist with oVirt.  Either the host is placed in a separate cluster with local storage, or I move it back to the GlusterFS. Appears I can't have two usable storage types under one host.  Is this correct? What I'm looking for is in the image and shared earlier.
