Hello My names ryan and im studying for my rhcsa and rhce also a linux enthusiast, im setting up my first ovirt server and have my ovirt engine setup aswell as my data center and host, ive come to the point where i need to configure storage. Ovirt is installed on a 256GB nvme ssd with my iso and master data domain pointed to the drive. I have 2 WD 2TB hard drives available that havent been allocated yet, id like them to be combined with lvm and have a single share exported via nfs that all vm's (3 vm's) in total can access for data storage Is this possible ? Kind Regards Ryan

Ryan, Do you have just one server? On Oct 8 2018, at 11:02 pm, ryancoeit@gmail.com wrote:

Hi Femi
Yes, 1 server acting as a host
You might want to try gluster: https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/gluster-hyperconverged/chap-Single_node_... In the past, loopback-mounting of NFS was considered risky, due to locking issues (unrelated to oVirt). Not sure about current state. Best regards, -- Didi

Hi, I have 2 oVirt nodes running with NFS loopback, everything is OK so far. Didi, thanks anyway for warning. Ryan, I would suggest you to install oVirt Engine on separate PC.
