Hi I am trying to setup an Ovirt, Glusterfs, VM servers. I have followed examples on setting up Ovirt and they have helped me so far, but not the end point that I am looking for. The web sites are: http://community.redhat.com/blog/2014/10/up-and-running-with-ovirt-3-5/ http://community.redhat.com/blog/2014/05/ovirt-3-4-glusterized/ http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2012/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/2012-lpc-vi... I am running 3 HP micro servers and 2 HP DL360 G5 The 3 micro servers are my glusterfs storage and have been provisioned for virt storage. The 2 DL360 are my processing machines. Now my 3 gluster hosts are in one cluster, the volume is in up status and has been provisioned for Virt Storage. But the problem is that my mount point is directed to one server, so when that server goes down, the volume storage domain goes down. I am not sure whether there is a way of mounting it by a "volume identity", so when a server goes down the storage domain stays up. With my 2 processing hosts, I have them in one cluster, but I have not gotten any where with this, as I want the Virtual machines to use the gluster volume as storage but use the processing hosts hardware for processing power. I would appreciate any assistance.

Is it a replicate volume? # gluster volume info - should give you this information If you're replicating the volume across 3 nodes, even when one of the server goes down, your storage domain should still be UP. thanks sahina On 03/23/2015 02:10 PM, Jonathan Mathews wrote:
