[ovirt-users] oVirt Node 4.1 question, writing files to /root and RPMs

[Kasturi Narra]

Hello Matt,

       All the partitions will be persisted when gluster is installed on
the ovirt node since gluster recommends user not to create bricks in root
directory. If the gluster bricks are created in root partition then once
the update of the node is done, you will not be able to see any of the
bricks.

Hope this helps !!!

Thanks
kasturi.
