However this is the mode I'm using, too. ovirt on top of CentOS with sw-raid. Haven't had any problems. > V. -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 de...@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hello Chris, On non-node installation I can’t see any problems as you said, but due to the appliance nature of oVirt Node I don’t know if this would be a supported scenario. Anyway you raised a good point: local storage. I’m not needing this, perhaps someone on the list will be using this feature.

[ovirt-users] Software RAID on oVirt Node
Hello, On typical deployment scenarios of oVirt which is the recommended RAID technologies for oVirt Node installation? Should I use controller based RAID or mdadm can be used instead? Is this recommended? I’m asking this because other vendors requires hardware RAID, even those 100% based on CentOS, like XenServer. There’s not even a way to install it with mdadm (Software Raid).
