Hi,
After looking into some more document, I think storage level fencing is
supported in ovirt via gluster.
Can some one correct me on this ?
Thanks,

Hi,
hosted engine is using SanLock to protect the engine VM disks, which allows
only this VM storage
based fencing. There's work[1] being done to allow this to more VMs, but it
still reuiqres more work.
So for now you should be using host fencing only.
