Hi Strahil, Just went through the Gluster Documentation again. Both the two-way replication and the builtin NFS is deprecated. Thanks for the pointer. Regards, Indivar Nair On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 10:39 PM Strahil wrote: > Hi Indivar, > You can do that , but is complicated. > First, I wou

Hi Indivar, You can do that , but is complicated. First, I would recommend you to use either replica 3 or replica 3 arbiter 1  cluster volumes. Second , you have  2 options  - to use  NFS provided by Cluster Cluster ,but this is deprecated and you will have to migrate from that option once it get

Ok. Got it now. 1. Setup Gluster *without* using ovirt 2. Configure Gluster to share via NFS 3. Configure ovirt nodes to use the storage via NFS 4. Create a Gluster only Cluster in ovirt Super. I will consider adding an arbiter to it. Thanks, Hesham Regards, Indivar Nair On Tue, Mar 26, 2019

Hi Indivar, I did understand your question correctly, and I suggested the solution for your use case. If you are starting a new oVirt setup, just configure gluster nodes separately, create a volume for engine and share over nfs, then install oVirt hosted engine on one of the nodes and use nfs as t

Hi Hesham, Sorry, I think I wasn't clear. We are not trying to set up HCI. *(We have two server hardware allocated as dedicated Gluster Nodes. And a few server hardware allocated as ovirt nodes.)* We want to the *ovirt nodes* to use the Gluster Storage as an *NFS Storage*. Regards, Indivar Na

Create a new Cluster in oVirt and disable it's "Virt Service" while enabling the "Gluster Service". Then add the gluster nodes to this Cluster and you will be able to manage them using oVirt without using them for virtualization. On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 5:43 PM Indivar Nair wrote: > > Hi All, > >
