<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a three-node hyper-converged oVirt datacenter running; now I need to add my first storage domain. I had prepped for this before installing oVirt by creating two distributed Gluster volumes with 3x replicas (one for the hosted engine,
one for VM storage) –<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[root@ovirt-node-01 ~]# gluster volume info | grep -e "Name" -e "Type" -e "Number"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Volume Name: engine<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Type: Distributed-Replicate<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Number of Bricks: 2 x 3 = 6<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Volume Name: vmdata<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Type: Distributed-Replicate<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Number of Bricks: 2 x 3 = 6<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now I’d like to use the “vmdata” volume for my storage domain. When in webadmin I select “New Domain” I get a dialog that lets me select GlusterFS as the storage type, but then requires a “Use host:” setting, and a path. Is it possible
for me to select one of my oVirt hosts (they all have the ‘vmdata’ volume), and then use “localhost:/vmdata” for the path? Or will this not work?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I know this isn’t officially supported yet, but if I can get it to work somehow, that’d be great :) It’s a non-production (PoC) setup, so the cost of failure should be low... That said, I don’t want to trash my rig and have to redo the
whole thing all over ;)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Will<o:p></o:p></p>
