No, it doesn't work as expected. I would expect to have an option to attach to any Virtual Machine storage which is either shared or local. For example, I have database server so I could put on shared storage and use local, SSD disk for data. I don't care if system is on "slow" network storage but with a lot of space and in the same time, I can use limited, but fast SSD space for data only. So, is this possible or not?

Hello everybody.
Currently at the company, we are testing oVirt 3.5 as a cloud platform. We have 4 nodes and GlusterFS as a shared storage. Every node has another SSD disk, currently not used. What we would like is to attach that local storage to particular host, so that some virtual machines can be on local and some on shared storage. If I try to create local storage, it works, but then host is in separate Data Center. If I try to add POSIX FS to node in existing Data Center, then all other hosts stop working, since they can't access that local storage (kind of expected).
So, long story short - does shared and local storage mix and how?
Thank you very much!
Works as expected, doesn't it? What do you want to exactly achieve with local storage?
