Re: [ovirt-users] Enabling libgfapi disk access with oVirt 4.2

Hrm, not sure what i am doing wrong then, does not seem to be working for me. I am not using the hosted engine, but a direct install on a physical server. I thought i have enabled support for libgfapi with this command: # engine-config -g LibgfApiSupported LibgfApiSupported: false version: 3.6 LibgfApiSupported: false version: 4.0 LibgfApiSupported: true version: 4.1 restarted the engine, shutdown the vm completely and started it back up a short time later. I am using this command to check: ps ax | grep qemu | grep 'file=gluster\|file=/rhev' Output is file=gluster://10.20.102.181/gl-vm12/....
