Hi,

 

I have my ovirt 4.2 hci cluster up and running, but I have a probably stupid question.

 

During the setup and in the documents it defaults to setting up the engine datastore/volume, a VMstore/volume and a data/volume…


Engine volume = the Hosted Engine storage domain
vmstore volume = the storage domain hosting the OS disks for the VMs
data volume = the storage domain hosting the data disks of the VMs

This was designed such that when setting up for disaster recovery, you need to set up remote backup only for the data disks

Please let us know /contribute to improving the documentation if this was not clear

 

What is the Data volume for?  I am planning on running VMs on this so I would assume I need VMstore and that’s what I will grow on my system.  In previous installs you had the opportunity to create the ISO domain, but not now.  I can see how to create in the engine UI so that’s fine, but I am just wondering what people use the Data volume for as an example.

 

Thanks

Bill
