Chris, if you have active-active with multipath: you upgrade one system, reboot it, check it came active again, then upgrade the other. -seamless. -no service interruption. -not locked to any storage solution. multipath was designed exactly for that. 2017-06-06 11:03 GMT-03:00 Chris Adams : > O

I think its not related to something on the trueNAS side. if you are using iscsi multipath you should be using round-robin , if one of the paths goes down you still have the other path with your information., so no sanlock . unfortunately if you want iscsi mpath on ovirt, its prefered to edit the c

As soon as yous NAS goes down, qemu running the VMs will start getting EIO errors and VMs will pause, so as to not lose any data. If the NAS upgrade isn't a very long procedure, you might as well complete the updates, enable the NAS, and unpause the VMs. On Mon, Jun 5, 2017 at 5:47 PM, Matthew Tre

[ovirt-users] Seamless SAN HA failovers with oVirt?

2017-06-05 Thread Matthew Trent
I'm using two TrueNAS HA SANs (FreeBSD-based ZFS) to provide storage via NFS to 7 oVirt boxes and about 25 VMs. For SAN system upgrades I've always scheduled a maintenance window, shut down all the oVirt stuff, upgraded the SANs, and spun everything back up. It's pretty disruptive, but I assume
