Hi,
I'm very interested in using libgfapi to get rid of the FUSE overhead, as read here: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/GlusterFS_Storage_Domain
The pre-reqs for HVs are:
- libvirt version 1.0.1
- qemu version 1.3
Currently I just can find these packages for fc19, I'm running FC18 based nodes with older packages (productive, not testing). So, am I right in this position I need to migrate to fc19 based hosts for this functionality? No, you can add the virt-preview repo which should get you the f18

Yes, virt-preview would work with f18, but that feature is only available in the 3.3 release (coming very soon). 3.3 will run on Fedora 19 hosts.
I'm running an oVirt Engine with version 3.2.1-1.fc18, here I don't have the option to choose GlusterFS_Domain, just POSIXFS. Which version do I need here ?
3.2 doesn't know about libgfapi, you'll need to do the lowlevel gluster stuff yourself, I think.
Right, for 3.2, you need to use POSIXFS for gluster. native gluster domains are added in 3.3. Mike
