Mike, Keep it simple. It has to be a bare, plain disk. Do not format or put a file system on the disk or the gluster install will fail. On Jun 25 2019, at 3:53 pm, Mike Davis <ovirtlists(a)profician.com&gt; wrote:

Hello Mike, I think the requirements for a gluster node is that it has at least 2 disks one for the O/S and the others for bricks. It doesn't seem to say this in the oVirt prerequisites. Could you reconfigure your raid device to provide LUNS?

The oVirt Node installation sets up partitions to use the entire disk. (Documentation recommends using the default layout.) The Cockpit HE deployment tries to use gluster, but on a different disk (non-existent). Do you recommend that I not use the default partitioning when installing oVirt Node; instead, I should set aside a partition for gluster (not formatting, etc)?

I know a single node is not best practice, but fits our current need. Now, I am trying to deploy the hosted engine, but getting the error "Device /dev/sdb not found" (full output below). /dev/sdb does not exist. Changing to /dev/sda fails (as I would expect) with "Creating physical volume '/dev/sda' failed". There is only one logical disk on this server (RAID), which is /dev/sda. The process does not seem correct to me. Why would the wizard try to build gluster volumes on bare partitions rather than in a file system like root? What do we need to do to deploy the HE? I used Cockpit and "Hyperconverged : Configure Gluster storage and oVirt hosted engine". Since it is a single node, I selected "Run Gluster Wizard For Single Node".
