Hi, When building a hosted engine VM, and choosing 'nfs' for storage, it does the install to this nfs share. Once the host is setup with, e.g., fibre channel as storage for VMs, does the hosted engine get migrated automatically to this storage? When does this actually happen? Thanks, Cam

Hi, the storage is not migrated automatically. Hosted engine VM will keep using the storage domain you configured during the setup phase. Best regards -- Martin Sivak SLA / oVirt On Wed, Jun 14, 2017 at 5:02 PM, cmc <iucounu@gmail.com> wrote:

If you choose fibre channel for the hosted engine storage, can this storage be shared later by other VMs? I assume you don't need a dedicated LUN, just one that isn't in use before hand. Thanks, C On Wed, Jun 14, 2017 at 6:28 PM, cmc <iucounu@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, the current code does not officially allow using the hosted engine storage domain for other VMs. We are currently working on removing that limitation. Best regards Martin Sivak On Thu, Jun 15, 2017 at 10:59 AM, cmc <iucounu@gmail.com> wrote:
