Every piece of documentation I read regarding the setup of Gluster seems to suggest using
at least one of the the nodes to host the engine. Is this a requirement of can I use an
engine that is deployed on a VM on another server in the same network? Any info would be
much appreciated.

yes, this is definitely possible, you can create Gluster storage domain and
use it no matter there your engine runs
Any info would be much appreciated.

Hi Vojtech
Thanks for the info, I have been looking for a method of creating the gluster cluster via
cockpit on one of my three hosts but the only way I can see is via the hosted engine
setup. Is it a case that we need to configure the hosts to use gluster storage with the
cli commands prior to adding it to a pre-existing non hosted engine?

you have to setup Gluster cluster first and then you can connect it as a
storage domain via engine UI (select Gluster in drop down menu when creating
new storage). Some documentation (with little bit outdated UI) can be found on
[1], section "Attaching a Gluster Storage Volume as a Storage Domain".
Check Gluster documentation how to setup Gluster cluster. For quick test you
can use scripts [2, 3, 4] - but please note these are not intended for
production use (e.g. turned off firewall etc, also use VDO which you may not
want to use).
