<div>Hi</div><div><br></div><div>I have decided to bite the bullet and re-install everything,....</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div>Can someone check and see if this idea seems like it will work...</div><div><br>
</div><div> I will have 3 servers </div><div><br></div><div>- 1. Ovirt engine (Lan address + external address) : name - <a href="http://frontend.server.com">frontend.server.com</a> </div><div>- 2. Storage server - debian NFS server (LAN address only) : name - <a href="http://storage1.server.com">storage1.server.com</a> </div>
<div>- 3. Ovirt node (from the node .iso) - I will set up Ovirt on an enternal; IP: name - <a href="http://node1.server.com">node1.server.com</a></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div> In order to get the best speed (i.e by using LAN address's) I shall add the 2nd LAN interface on the node as a LAN address - (So it can comminicate with the storage node) ..</div>
<div> Should I add the LAN address's of the ovirt node and storage on the frontend to /etc/hosts (i.e not the external IP - 10.0.0.x) ? Or will cause issues (like before)</div><div> - I want it to send as much traffic via the LAN rather than external network (for speed)</div>
<div><br></div><div> (also shall I add the frontend / storage to /etc/hosts on the node ?)</div></div><div><br></div><div>Any ideas will be welcomed.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 2 March 2012 12:24, Morgan Cox <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:morgancoxuk@gmail.com" target="_blank">morgancoxuk@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Ah - I think this is where the issue lies...<div><br></div><div>I can't resolve the ip of the node .....</div><div><br></div><div>i.e the node only has a LAN address - the desktop i'm connecting from in not connected to that LAN.</div>
<div><br></div><div>All the 3 server can resolve host names as they are in the LAN - however external connections cannot resolv the node (as that only has a LAN IP)</div><div><br></div><div>Can you suggest how I can fix this - I could re-install the node with an external ip - but that will be slower...

</div>The client (your desktop) needs to be able to resolve the hostname of the hypervisor host - the ovirt node.<br>
<br>
can you add an entry to the hosts file on your desktop with the hostname of the hypervisor host and it's IP address.<br>
