Hi,

Thanks...can you suggest me any good how to/article for the glusterfs with
ovirt...

One strange thing is if i will try both (compute & storage) on the same
node...the below quote not happen....

---------------------
Right now, if 10.10.10.2 goes away, all your gluster mounts go away and
your VMs get paused because the hypervisors can’t access the storage. Your
gluster storage is still fine, but ovirt can’t talk to it because
10.10.10.2 isn’t there.
---------------------

Even the 10.10.10.2 goes down...i can still access the gluster mounts and
no VM pause....i can access the VM via ssh...no connection failure.....the
connection drop only in case of SPM goes down and the another node will
elect as SPM(All the running VM's pause in this condition).
