Why not use those nodes as NFS or Gluster storage? -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces(a)ovirt.org [mailto:users-bounces@ovirt.org] On Behalf Of Eliezer Croitoru Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2014 6:58 PM To: users(a)ovirt.org Subject: [Users] Can I use couple nodes just for storage? I want to use couple nodes for storage. Since these nodes dosn't have VT capability it will be a bit of a problem using ovirt. Can I disable the vt check while installing a single node? Building manually a node? A engine node without VT support? is it possible? As an example I have two server class nodes which works for a very long time and supports sata but lack VT technology. Another option is to use couple tiny devices with ovirt on them to for lower cost home storage.
