Hello,
I can't seem to install the self-hosted engine onto local storage. It
gives me glustefs, iscsi, fc, and nfs as the available options. I'm
using this in a home-lab scenario, and don't have budget/etc. for
building out a dedicated NAS for it, or setting up multiple nodes. I
like the look of oVirt, and wanted to try it with a couple disposable
vm's (plex, and a docker instance I break often). My current best-
thought for how to make it work is to setup NFS on the server, and
then point the self-hosted engine at the (local) NFS share. Is there
a better way to do this that I might be overlooking?*
*Factoring that I don't have the funds to build out a proper storage
environment, yet.
(and if anyone asks, I did search for a solution to this, but didn't
find anything super helpful. Mostly I found 5+ year old articles on a
similar but different scenario).
Well, if you can live with a regular engine(not self-hosted), this
works:
