Subject: Questions about oVirt and possible API bug

Hi everyone,

One of the requirements behind the system that I am attempting to build is =
that there should be no local storage. I've noticed that I cannot add local=
 storage hosts to the same datacenter and cluster. It seems awkward to have=
 a 1:1:1 ratio of datacenter to cluster to host. Is there anything that I a=
m missing or is there a reason for why this is the design in ovirt?

I plan to use the system to provide a service where end-users will make API=
 calls to create and delete VMs. It will be critical that oVirt-engine not =
be a single-point of failure. I can't seem to find much information about w=
hether oVirt-engine is designed with redundancy in mind. Is oVirt capable o=
f a failover or an active-active configuration?

Finally, I am attempting to automate registration of hosts to oVirt and am =
hitting this when I try to add a local storage domain:

[oVirt shell (connected)]# create storagedomain --host test1 --type "Data (=
Master)" --storage-type "Local on host"
unknown error: 'str' object has no attribute 'export'

Is this a bug with ovirt-shell that I should file or am I doing something w=
rong? The host is in maintenance mode, I do not see anything in the engine =
logs after I run the command.

Thanks,
Andrey
