[ovirt-users] Hardware setup

[Bryan Sockel]

Agree'd don't need to over complicate things, just trying to figure out 
things from a budgetary standpoint and how to make every thing fit in.

If you have the need to save in power and in hardware than by all means go 
for it and do what fits you...
Compute nodes should be treated as a disposable node, One goes out and you 
shouldn't have to worry much about it. The more you "hyperconverge"  the 
more you are exposing your self to self-inflicted chaos (Complexity). I am 
the keep it simple and standard guy... Let the next guy be able to figure 
things out without having to pull hairs... 

Yes is the new thing, the new "Just DO IT!" In my peace of mind, Storage 
stays where it needs to be... On its own world of IOPS and Drives.
I know what it is and where is going. Its just not my cup of tea (For now)


My 2 Centavos.

What is the reason for ? A lot of stuff is moving into Hyperconvergence and 
that saves a lot of hardware and power consumption.

The only thing I would look with more caution is the amount of memory 
Gluster itself consumes, but if there are enough resources in each host for 
Distributed Storage + Compute stuff I see no problems with that, unless 
someone has some strong technical reason for not.

Bryan,

Just my opinion but I would separate storage away from your compute nodes.

Hi,
 
I am looking to put together a configuration setup for a new install and was 
wondering if it is ok for have both gluster and ovirt running on the same 
systems, or if it was better to separate my storage on to anther platform?
 
I am currently looking into 3 servers with 196 GB Ram, dual 6 core proc's on 
each server.  Gluster would be installed on each server with a 3 way 
replica, ovirt would be running as an appliance and each node would be part 
of the ovirt cluster.
