[ovirt-users] oVirt/gluster storage questions for 2-3 node datacenter

Hi, I am currently testing oVirt 3.4.3 + gluster 3.5.2 for use in my relatively small home office environment on a single host. I have 2 Intel hosts with SSD and magnetic disk and one AMD host with only magnetic disk. I have been trying to figure out the best way to configure my environment given my previous attempt with oVirt 3.3 encountered storage issues. I will be hosting two types of VMs - VMs that can be tied to a particular system (such as 3 node FreeIPA domain or some test VMs), and VMs which could migrate between systems for improved uptime. The processor issue seems straightforward. Have a single datacenter with two clusters - one for the Intel systems and one for the AMD systems. Put VMs which need to live migrate on the Intel cluster. If necessary VMs can be manually switched between the Intel and AMD cluster with a downtime. The Gluster side of the storage seems less clear. The bulk of the gluster with oVirt issues I experienced and have seen on the list seem to be two node setups with 2 bricks in the Gluster volume. So here are my questions: 1) Should I avoid 2 brick Gluster volumes? 2) What is the risk in having the SSD volumes with only 2 bricks given that there would be 3 gluster servers? How should I configure them? 3) Is there a way to use local storage for a host locked VM other than creating a gluster volume with one brick? 4) Should I avoid using the hosted engine configuration? I do have an external VMware ESXi system to host the engine for now but would like to phase it out eventually. 5) If I do the hosted engine should I make the underlying gluster volume 3 brick replicated? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. -David
