heya-- i have an ovirt 3.6 installation. all my iscsi LUNs are mulipath, however the hostedengine storage is not. i tried to import the hostedengine storage domain into my cluster but got a warning it is controlled via another oVirt cluster. i accepted the warning and imported anyway, but it crashed my hosted engine and hosted-engine broker restarted as expected. i am curious of how to configure multipath for the hosted engine storage domain ? many thanks! --julian

You don't have to try manually importing it: the engine will automatically import once you correctly added your first regular storage domain.

We have an open RFE for that, unfortunately it's still not ready.
many thanks!

When I first installed my 3.6 oVirt cluster, there was a bug where the storage domain didn't show up after first deploy. I have since upgraded the cluster to the latest oVirt 3.6, and the sotrage domain appeared, however I never tried to import it until now.

Thanks. My reason for looking into this is I need to reboot my prod SAN switch. I have the ports split between my two SAN switches, however only hostedengine is not multi-path, so during a reboot I will loose access to the LUN. Any solutions to the problem with oVirt? Shutting down the cluster is not an option. --julian
