[ovirt-users] Where to add NFS Data Storage

[Taste-Of-IT]

Sorry for write again, but its still unclear how to add the nfs storage 
and where.

- as far as i understand the engine is in own vm what is neccessary for 
ha with 2 ore most host.
- the e.g. nfs storage could be external on own server and will 
connected in engine-vm setup

- the host itself needs a storage path at installation process too, 
which one? local or external nfs too? what will hosted there? the 
engine-vm right?

- so if i only have one host with nfs storage on itself, i have to 
create 2 nfs paths, one for the host with engine-vm and one for the 
engine-vm for nfs storage right?
- so what is the storage on engine for, all vms?
