Re: [vdsm] Using vdsm hook to exploit gluster backend of qemu
Deepak, I know that I am not relating to your main issue (sorry...), but... I like the idea of a hook mangling qemu:commandline. Could you (or someone else) contribute such a hook to upstream vdsm? I'm sure many would thank a hook accepting general qemu command line as custom property, and pass it to qemu command line. ___ vdsm-devel mailing list vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-devel

Ideally based on the Storage Domain type and options used, there should be a way in VDSM to modify the libvirt XML formed. from your discussion with saggi, the recommended approach was a gluster storage domain. do i understand correctly that here are two ways to consume the images via qemu: block based or file based? would there also be a difference in how these images are provisioned (i.e., would this imply a gluster_fs and a gluster_block storage domains, which sounds somewhat of an overkill, unless there are very good different use cases for this)? ___ vdsm-devel mailing list vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-devel

Dan, Sure, i remember you asking for this on IRC. Its on my TODO list, and will get to it soon. My priority is the VDSM gluster integration for exploiting the gluster backend of qemu, and I am trying all different options possible, hooks being one of them. thanx, deepak ___ vdsm-devel mailing list vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-devel
