Hi Sahina,
First: sorry for my delayed response. I wasn't able to respond earlier.
I already planned on adding the 4th node as a gluster client, so thank you for
confirming that this works.
Why I was in doubt is that certain VMs with a lot of storage I/O on the 4th node have to
replicate to 3 other hosts (the replica-3 gluster nodes) over the storage network, while
a VM on 1 of the replica-3 gluster nodes only has to replicate to two other nodes over
the network, thus creating less network traffic.
Does this make sense?
And if it does: can that be an issue?
Regards,
Bertjan

I'm struggling with the same problem (I say struggling because I'm still
having stability issues for what i consider a stable cluster) but you can:
- create a replica 3 engine gluster volume
- create replica 2 data, iso and export volumes
What are the stability issues you're facing? Data volume if used as a data
storage domain should be a replica 3 volume as well.
Deploy the hosted-engine on the first VM (with the engine volume) froom the
CLI, then log in Ovirt admin, enable gluster support, install *and deploy*
from the GUI host2 and host3 (where the engine bricks are) and then install
host4 without deploying. This should get you the 4 hosts online, but the
engine will run only on the first 3
Right. You can add the 4th node to the cluster, but not have any bricks on this
volume in which case VMs will be run on this node but will access data from the
other 3 nodes.

Dear all,
I've tried to find a way to add a 4th oVirt-node to my existing
3-node setup with replica-3 gluster storage, but found no usable
solution yet.
From what I read, it's not wise to create a replica-4 gluster
storage, because of bandwith overhead.
Is there a safe way to do this and still have 4 equal oVirt nodes?
Thanks in advance!

Bertjan
