Hi, I don't entirely understand the difference between both options, could you explain in more detail what you mean by distributing the datastore to all the nodes?
Assuming your configuration is as follows: NFS Server exports datastores 0 and 1 -> Mounted in Frontend + Nodes I recommend the following option: - Create a new Image datastore (it will have ID >= 100, in this example we will assume it has ID: 100) - Create a new exports directive in your new storage box, for example /storage/datastores/100 - Mount that mountpoint in all the nodes including the frontend in the following path: /var/lib/one/datastores/100 Now you can register more images in the new datastore (ID: 100), and since they are all persistent they will not take space in the system datastore (ID: 0) Best regards, Jaime On Tue, Aug 26, 2014 at 6:05 AM, Rhesa Mahendra <rh...@lintasmediadanawa.com > wrote: > Guys, please help. > > > > -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Add New Storage Box Date: Mon, > 25 Aug 2014 16:21:13 +0700 From: Rhesa Mahendra > <rh...@lintasmediadanawa.com> <rh...@lintasmediadanawa.com> To: > users@lists.opennebula.org <users@lists.opennebula.org> > <users@lists.opennebula.org>, Javier Fontan <jfon...@opennebula.org> > <jfon...@opennebula.org> > > Guys, > > We have plan to add a new storage box, Our existing storage : > /var/lib/one/datastore/0 = system > /var/lib/one/datastore/1 = image > /var/lib/one/datastore/2 = file > All type are from one storage box. > > We did internal discuss and we get result with two options: > > 1.
