Sure, it’s the usual speed/flexibility tradeoff
with local nfs and migration you don’t get much performance

Nothing is preventing you to set up the nfs server on one of the hosts and add it to oVirt, or perhaps gluster as Yaniv mentioned.

For both speed and flexibility, we will one day have passthrough with migration support….just not yet:)
