This is very interesting work. Jan, do you have any write-up on how
you were able to set up the gfs and clvm setup to work with this driver?
It's a use case very similar to what we are considering for FermiCloud.
Two other questions that weren't immediately obvious from looking
at the code:
1) with this driver, could the OpenNebula head node itself be
a (static) virtual machine? Looks like yes, but I want to be sure.
2) How is the notion of an image repository handled--does
openNebula copy the OS image from a separate image repository
every time the VM is instantiated, or is the repository defined
to be the place that the OS image lives on disk?

Hi Jan,
I call this transfer manager drive **gfs2clvm** and made it (even in
current development state - but most of the functions works
already) available on github:
https://github.com/jhrcz/opennebula-tm-gfs2clvm
if anyone is interrested, wants to contribute and help, please contact me.
A good way to get more people involved and interested would be to add
it to our ecosystem catalog:
http://www.opennebula.org/software:ecosystem
gfs2clvm definitely sounds like a good candidate for inclusion in the
ecosystem. If you are interested, you can find instructions here:
http://www.opennebula.org/community:ecosystem
You're also welcome to write about gfs2clvm on our blog
(http://blog.opennebula.org/). If you're interested, just drop me a
line off-list and I'll set you up with an account.
Cheers!
