 My question was just to see whether other people's experience would suggest
 it was worth the effort of going down the hardware RAID and proprietary
 driver route.

From the HP info
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/arraycontrollers/dynamicsmartarray/
it looks like this is a software raid card, you're probably better of
just using mdraid unless your card has a flash backed write cache
module
_or_ you need drive format compatibility with other smart array controllers.

...Eliminating most of the hardware RAID controller components, and
relocating advanced RAID algorithms from a hardware-based controller
into device driver software lowers the total solution cost,..

[CentOS] qemu-kvm-rhev

2013-11-11 Thread Sander Grendelman
I recently ran into some problems using certain oVirt (3.3) features
on CentOS 6.4 hosts.
The solution was to use the qemu-kvm-rhev version from the EL6 RHEV repository:
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/SRPMS/qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6_4.9.src.rpm

It seems that this tree is not carried/built by CentOS.
Are there any plans on the CentOS for carrying these packages?

Some background information:

- http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017652.html
- http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017722.html

Best regards,

Sander

The important difference in this case is support for live snapshots.

There's probably also some additional support for RHEV/oVirt integration.

 How does this differ from stock kvm?
