Hi Strahil,
there is no option to define a "Gluster network" logical network during HCI
deployment; there is only an indirect way because you specify IP/hostname
of the network to use for Gluster.

Following "Deploying Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for
Virtualization on a single node" doc:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_hyperconverged_infrastructure_for_virtualization/1.7/html/deploying_red_hat_hyperconverged_infrastructure_for_virtualization_on_a_single_node/index

at the beginning when you install the host from the node iso you specify
its hostname/IP
--> in my case ovirt.mydomain

Then here below In the first window you choose the "Start" button on the
right for "Hyperconverged":
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_hyperconverged_infrastructure_for_virtualization/1.7/html/deploying_red_hat_hyperconverged_infrastructure_for_virtualization_on_a_single_node/task-config-single-node#task-config-gluster-single-node

then you select the right button "Run Gluster Wizard For Single Node"
and, as the manual says, in the window titled "Gluster Deployment" :
Specify the back-end FQDN on the storage network of the hyperconverged host
--> in my case used ovirtst.mydomain.storage

You go through and indeed oVirt is using for Gluster the network you
specified above, but in
Compute -> Clusters -> Default -> Logical Networks -> Manage Networks
no logical network has been created and then assigned to the column named
"Gluster Network"

This is what I mean and the reason I think I get the WARNING in engine.log
of my first post: I would have expected setup to create a logical network
(eg "Gluster") and automatically assign it to the "Gluster Network" type.
Something similar to what is already automatically done for the ovirtmgmt
logical network assignment, as a logic.

Anyway, following also what described thorugh here:
http://www.chrisj.cloud/?q=node/8

I made these manual steps without having any disruption inside my running
VMs:

1) Compute -> Clusters -> Default -> Logical Networks -> Add Network
Name: Gluster
VM network --> unchecked
MTU --> Custom 9000 (as this is the MTU used and already in place on the
host)
In the left side pane selected "Cluster" and uncheck "required" because not
yet assigned to host and to avoid disruption

2) Compute -> Clusters -> Default -> Logical Networks -> Manage Networks
Select the "Gluster" logical network as "Gluster Network" type

3) Hosts --> My host --> Network Interfaces --> Setup host networks
Drag and drop the "Gluster" network at right on to the network interface at
left, already configured with the static ip related to storage network used
during setup
OK button

4) Eventually mark now the "Gluster" logical network as a required one for
the cluster

Hey Gianluca,

If there is an option to define the Gluster network during deployment - it 
should work like that.

Can you go to the UI -> your cluster -> and check the network is there.
Maybe it was created but not marked as storage network.

Yes Eric, indeed.

And as you see from my post, the storage network has been specified during 
setup.

And indeed it is the one (even if only with one host) used by Gluster.

But apparently oVirt didn't setup e storage network for it as I expected

So the 3 questions are:

 

1) is this behavior expected?

2) if so, do you think a useful thing to integrate storage network 
configuration during the setup phase if specified by the user?

3) what is the expected flow to do now to configure the storage network? is 
downtime expected to do so?

This is older documentation but I believe it still applies.

 

https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/gluster/select-network-for-gluster.html

 

I would check with the Red Hat folks to make sure but my understanding is 
glusterfs has it’s own network. I would assume it would have to be defined 
beforehand for it work properly.

 

I hope this helps.

Subject: [ovirt-users] Doubts related to single HCI and storage network

 

Hello,

I deployed HCI 4.3.9 with gluster and single node from the cockpit based 
interface.

During install I specified the storage network, using

 

1) For the mgmt network and hostname of the hypervisor

172.16.0.30 ovirt.mydomain

 

2) for the storage network (even if not used in single host... but in case of 
future addition..)

10.50.50.11 ovirtst.mydomain.storage

 

all went good. And system runs quite ok: I was able to deploy an OCP 4.3.8 
cluster with 3 workers and 3 masters... a part from erratic "vm paused" 
messages for which I'm going to send a dedicated mail...

 

I see in engine.log warning messages of this kind:

 

2020-03-27 00:32:08,655+01 WARN  
[org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.gluster.GlusterVolumesListReturn] 
(DefaultQuartzScheduler2) [15cbd52e] Could not associate brick 
'ovirtst.mydomain.storage:/gluster_bricks/engine/engine' of volume 
'40ad3b5b-4cc1-495a-815b-3c7e3436b15b' with correct network as no gluster 
network found in cluster '9cecfa02-6c6c-11ea-8a94-00163e0acd5c'

 

I would have expected the setup to create a gluster network as it was part of 
the initial configuration could this be a subject for an RFE?

What can I do to fix this warning?

Thanks,

Gianluca
