[ovirt-users] Install oVirt with directly-attached SCSI devices

[Paolo Smiraglia]

Hi all!

My name is Paolo and I'm the sysadmin of the research group (infosec)
where I work.

Recently our infrastructure was updated and I'm planning to use oVirt
as virtualisation manager. The new "toys" they gave me are

  - HP DL360G9 (x2)
  - HP MSA1040 (double controller with mini SAS connection)

By exploring the oVIrt documentation, seems that the best solution for
storage management would be having something like NSF, iSCSI and so
on. Unfortunately, LUNs exposed by our MSA1040 are recognised by the
two DL36G9 as directly-attached SCSI devices.

I asked Google and I found this old post from the far 2013

   http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017924.html

that seems to be very similar to my case and the scenario is not rosy... :-(

Is now, in 2016, something changed? Have you something to suggest?

Many thanks,

   Paolo
