deploying ovirt 3.6 engine on a glustered storage

Hello, I'm trying to install a new oVirt enviroment at my company but I'm having troubles installing the engine on the /gluster/engine/brick as it is not in replica 3 mode. I want to install it first on 1 host as I have only 1 host available at the moment. Afterwards I will add 2 additional host but I need to get past this replica 3 requirement first now. How can I accomplish this ? Kind regards

You won’t be able to use the engine-setup for the whole thing, but if you setup thegluster share by hand, you should be able to use it for the hosted engine setup.

Hello, I did set up the glusterfs before but when Running the hosted-engine --deploy command it stops complaining about replica 3. Kind regards Op 16 jul. 2016 6:04 p.m. schreef "Darrell Budic" <budic@onholyground.com>:

Hello, I have the gluster shares set up nd downloaded the appliance. Is there an other way deploying it than running hosted-engine deploy ? Kind regards. Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPad

Do you have replica 3 volume created ? If not you need to create the volume. Thanks kasturi.

I have an idea how to get this going but you'll need to test this really well.

Hello Joop, I have 3 servers with 64 gb of RAM and 2 Tb of storage. This sounds like a way to go. I will try, test and get back to you. Kind regards. Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPad
