Thanks for the info Geoff... Had one last question: Can this random placing of snapshots on multiple sec stores be changed/ modified?? It must be coded in java/ script file right??

Just want your opinion on this: Is there any way/ steps to transfer data (volumes/ Snapshots/ Templates) from the first Sec Store (60GB) over to the new Sec Store (200GB); assuming I want my new Sec Store to be the only Secondary Storage available for the Zone?? Right now I have 3 VMs running in the environment besides the SSVM and the Console Proxy VM..

The way secondary storage works when you have more than 1 secondary storage NFS - is that l PUBLIC stuff (ISOs, TEMPLATES that are defined as not private) - are replicated across ALL secondary storage NFS servers. Private stuff (that is not defined as public) - so private ISOs, private TEMPLATES, and of course snapshots, are randomly distributed across all secondary storage NFS servers... Hope this clears things.

The space on this secondary storage is approx 60 GB.. I am planning to add a second Secondary Storage to the Zone (NFS : 200 GB) and want to dedicate this new Sec Store as the default place to store the volume snapshots of my instances.. Can this be configured in any way via Cloudstack's Global Settings or via Cloudstack APIs?? Regards, Yohan -- Andrija Pani?
