Re: [ovirt-users] Shared storage between DC

2016-05-02 Thread Idan Shaby 
Hi Arsène,

There's no way to have a storage domain that is available in one cluster
but not available in the other, in the same dc. It is by design.

Idan

Re: [ovirt-users] Shared storage between DC

2016-05-02 Thread Arsène Gschwind 

Hi Idan,

Thanks a lot for your answer, that's clear now.
I will change my setup and use 2 cluster in the same DC instead.
In the case using 2 cluster in the same DC I've noticed that all Storage 
domain have to be available for all clusters, in my case I use SAN 
Storage. Is this by design or is there a way to have some Storage Domain 
only available on one cluster but not on the others?

Arsène

Therefore, you cannot import a storage domain to a second datacenter 
while it is active on the first one, anyway.

In your setup, did you just define 1 DC and multiple clusters?

The "enabling factor" is represented by an "storage

between datacenters, that run the VMs.

So: cluster also is spread across dc, no need to import nothing.

We do replicate a FC Volume between 2 datacenter using FC SAN
storage technology and we have an oVirt cluster on each site
defined in separate DCs. The idea behind this is to setup a DR
site and also balance the load between each site.
What happens if I do import a storage domain already active in
one DC, will it break the Storage domain?

Hi Arsène,

The only storage domain that can be shared between datacenters is the iso
domain
But that's not what you're looking for. You can't share a data domain
between two datacenters.

As for importing a storage domain which is active on one datacenter to
another datacenter, there are two cases:
- If the datacenters are in the same oVirt setup, that won't be possible,
and the operation will not be performed.
- If the datacenters are in two different oVirt setups, the import to the
second datacenter will succeed, but you will experience issues in the first
datacenter.
The reason for that is that the host in the second datacenter overrides the
storage domain metadata when importing it.

Therefore, you cannot import a storage domain to a second datacenter while
it is active on the first one, anyway.

Idan

Hi
I have in production the scenery something similar to what you've described.
The "enabling factor" is represented by an "storage virtualization" set of 
appliances, that maintain mirrored logical volume over fc physical volumes 
across two distinct datacenters, while giving rw simultaneus access to cluster 
hypervisors split between datacenters, that run the VMs.

So: cluster also is spread across dc, no need to import nothing.

Roberto
