Hi!There are many promising features in oVirt, but still I feel it is just "promising", not for production. The most critical issue for me, that is preventing me from using oVirt in production, is the "single point of failure" of the engine. I wouldn't want the struggle of setting up a new engine,

Hi! Since I'm a storage guy, I would like to know more about this! Are these watchdog/SANlock features LVM functionality, or is it a part of oVirt? Since I can't find any info about it in oVirt wiki documentation... Since LUN's are mapped to all the machines in the cluster, I guess it is not on

Hi! Interesting question, I would also be interested in that. LVM would be aware of the expansion, I suppose...Did you run a pvs command for LVM to list the size? It would be nice if LVM automatically would change the LV size...anyone knows how this works...? Filesystem size is another thing.
