As long as the VM is not hosted by those 2 hyperconverged nodes - there should be no problem.

Another option is a small machine with a single SSD.
I'm using Lenovo Tiny M-series as an arbiter.

Hi all,

I have a two node hyper-converged setup which are causing me split-brains when network issues are encountered. Since I cannot add a third hardware node, I was thinking to add a dedicated guest VM hosted in same hyper-converged cluster which would do the arbiter for the volumes.

What do you think about this setup in regards to stability and performance?
I am running ovirt 4.2.

Thanx,
Alex
