        Hello,
        now with oVirt 3.5 there is also iSCSI with NFS as backed
        storage for
        Hosted Engine.
        What is the limitation about the storage domain? The
integration in
        setup scripts or due to storage type itself in engine mgmt?


    Both ;) The storage is managed via vdsm so whatever vdsm supports HE
    should support, but it requires some work in setup and the agent
code.


        What I mean is: if in some way one initially configures the
        engine on an
        external server (physical or virtual), could then be feasible
        migrating
        it "manually" in the oVirt environment (with backup/restore
steps)?


    - yes


Sorry,
do you mean that I can have a Gluster storage domain, with an external
engine and then backup/restore the egine inside a vm on this Gluster
environment as a self hosted engine?


- yes, moving the engine to the vm is not different from moving it to
another physical machine, is it?


- altough gluster doesn't work well with the hosted engine, the migration is possible, but the actual usage of hosted engine on top of gluster is known to cause problems.
