Hi All,
I was wondering if there is a document that describes in detail how ovirt
is working with iscsi and how it creates the disks, etc. etc. on the SAN /
iSCSI storage ?
I checked the online documentation however cant see it going into much
detail. I'd also be prepared to write something up for the documenation
section, but I need to get it to work and understand first ;)
FWIW, this is a part 2 of a project I'm working on, now moving away from
NFS and onto iSCSI (a cheap san solution).
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Alex

Hi Alex,
Currently there is no document going into details as you request.
Most documentations relate to flows/capabilities.
Some features are described in more detail ( http://www.ovirt.org/Category:Feature ), but
not something related to your interest AFAIK.
I remind you that we are open source though...
If you can't get it to work feel free to ask for help.
Also feel free to add the documentation you feel is lacking.
Regards,
Vered

Alex,
We have used iSCSI in our environment for several years now (mostly
with VMWare.. but now with RHEV and oVirt for ~1 year)
While I may not be able to answer your questions in great detail
perhaps I can at least help shed some light. I also think that Vered's
comment about the documentation is a great idea and perhaps you and I
can help add that to the wiki.
I'm actually in the middle of recovering from an ovirt disaster (we
lost our management server and didn't have quite all the backups we needed)
As soon as I get done with that I'll do a little digging in to your
question and explain what I have for my set up. Feel free to email me
directly and perhaps we can meet up on IRC.

Sorry to fork this thread, but just a comment : I read nothing about the
SPOF the management server appears to me.
Did I read too fast or mis-read about a clustered management solution?
