Hi,

Does anyone know how to mount a spectrum scale filesystem as a storage domain using the POSIX compliant storage option.

I’ve tried to follow an earlier post about this - https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/LLXLSI4ZQFU32PV7AXLYD5LJBS23HBKO/

specifically the options provided by jtorres:

Domain Function: Data

Name: name_of_the_domain

Storage Type: Posix Compliant FS

Path: gpfs_kvm (the name of the "device"/"filesystem" created, not an

absoluthe path)

VFS Type: gpfs

Mount Options: rw,relatime,dev=gpfs_kvm (the dev parameter is the key to mount the

filesystem).

Using those options, the webinterface just tells me it cannot communicate with the storage.

If I change it to:

Domain Function: Data

Name: name_of_the_domain

Storage Type: Posix Compliant FS

Path: /mnt/b4tsz001

VFS Type: gpfs

Mount Options: rw,relatime

The oVirt host reboots immediately.

I have mounted the filesystem locally on the oVirt Host under /mnt/<filesystem name>

Change the owner to: vdsm:kvm

Am I missing something or is this a general bug between spectrum scale and oVirt.

Any ideas will be appreciated! Thanks

Best Regards
