Lots of great hardware knowledge in this thread! I'm also making the move
to 10Gb.
I'm adding a 3rd host to my deployment and moving to Glusterfs on 3 nodes,
from my current NFS share on a separate storage server.
Each of the 3 nodes has dual E5-2640 V4s with128Gb ram. I have some
hardware choic
We run Dell Poweredge R720s and R730s with 32 GB of RAM and quad Xeon
processors. Storage is provided by Dell MD3800i and Promise arrays
using iSCSI. The network is all 10 gigabit interfaces using 802.3ad
bonds. We actually just upgraded from 1 gigabit NICs since there were
some performance issu

Hello Chritopher,
Thank you very much for sharing.
It started out just for fun but now people at work are looking at me to have an
environment to do testing, simulate problems they have encountered, etc.
And more an more off them see the benifits off this. At work we are running
vmware but tha

Hi Andy,
we have 3 hosts for virtualization. Each 40 Cores, 512GB RAM, RAID 1 for
the system, 4 bonded (onboard) 1Gbit NICs for client access (to the VMs)
and a 10GBit NIC for the storage network.
The storage is built of 3 hosts, 10Gbit NIC, RAID 6 (5TB HDDs and SSDs
for caching) and gluster in re
Sorry Andy,
forgot to write the density.
On the first cluster (6 nodes) we're running 225 VMs at the moment
On the second one (2 nodes) we're running 42 VMs + the engine.
This setup is running since last July.
Just for completness, we've just set up another environment with the
same sizing (2 s
Hi Luca,
You have 2 node cluster with 512 GB each host to run engine only?
How many vms are u running at the compute nodes?

Andy, Im using 2 node cluster:
-2 supermicro 6017 (2 Intel 2420(12C24T each node) 384Gb ram total, 10gbe.
all hosted engine via nfs
storage side: 2 SC836BE16-R1K28B(192gb arc cache) with raid 10 zfs+intel
slog serving iscsi at 10Gbe
80 VM's more or less.

Hello Alex,
Thanks for sharing. Much appriciated.
I believe my setup would need 96 Gb off RAM in each host, and would need about
at least 3 Tb of storage. Probably 4 Tb would be beter if I want to work with
snapshots. (Will be running mostly windows 2016 servers or windows 10 desktops
with 6Gb
I have 2 or 3 node clusters with following hardware (all with self-hosted
engine) :
2 node cluster:
RAM: 64 GB per host
CPU: 8 cores per host
Storage: 4x 1TB SAS in RAID10
NIC: 2x Gbit
VMs: 20
The above, although I would like to have had a third NIC for gluster
storage redundancy, it is running s
Hello Andrei,
Thank you very much for sharing info on your hardware setup. Very informative.
At this moment I have my ovirt engine on our vmware environment which is fine
for good backup and restore.
I have 4 nodes running now all different in make and model with local storage
and it works but
Hi,
HL ProLiant DL380, dual Xeon
120 GB RAID L1 for system
2 TB RAID L10 for VM disks
5 VMs, 3 Linux, 2 Windows
Total CPU load most of the time is low, high level of activity related
to disk.
Host engine under KVM appliance on SuSE, can be easily moved, backed up,
copied, experimented with, etc.
Hi all,
Not sure if this is the place to be asking this but I was wondering which
hardware you all are using and why in order for me to see what I would be
needing.
I would like to set up a HA cluster consisting off 3 hosts to be able to run 30
vm’s.
The engine, I can run on an other server. T
