Ohh thx for the answer :) That's why the running VMs on that particular storage would only run on that host. One can do that in other hypervisors like vsphere or hyper-v. It would be a nice thing to have in rhv too imho.

By design, host local storage is accessible from the host itself only and that's why it cannot be used in shared storage Data Centres.

Hi,

Is there a technical reason for not being able to use the local host storage if that host is already in a cluster with shared storage? 

For instance, if a user has a server with with a lot of storage and he wants to use that storage for non HA VMs that will only run over that host while, that host is also part of a cluster running VMs in a shared storage.

If there's no technical reason/limitation behind this and this is a design choice, do you consider this to be in a roadmap?

Thanks!
