It is great news that all you need is O_DIRECT in fuse, and that > Vdsm's SHAREDFS interface works as it is for gluster. > > Regards, > Dan. > Hello, Got more questions on this, now that I am re-visiting this. The last time i tried using SHAREDFS, i started from createStorageDomain verb, and it works fine. But now we have connectStorageServer verb... which i believe is the new way of doing things ? If i start from connectStorageServer verb to mount using SHAREDFS ( which goes via PosixFs... MountConnection flow), that won't help me entirely here, right ? Because it only mounts based on the dict sent, but does not do anything with the image and metadata stuff ( which createStorageDomain flow did ). I am wondering if its too early to start using connectStorageServer ? If not, how can i re-write the above vdsm standalone example using connectStorageServer instead of createStorageDomain flow ?
