hi,


i'm trying to get into this gluster thing with oVirt and added a 2
node gluster cluster to my oVirt 4.1 data center (just for
testing, i
know it can't have HA with 2 nodes). provisioning of the storage
hosts did apparently work and my storage cluster seems to be
operational.

i have very little understanding of glusterfs right know, but what i
think i am missing in the interface is a way to configure
volumes/bricks on my gluster cluster/hosts so i can use them for
storage domains (i want to use a "managed gluster volume"), the drop
down "Gluster" in "New domain" is empty. all i could find for
storage
specific UI was the "Services" tab for the storage cluster which is
empty.
once gluster hosts are added into the UI, user will be able to see
volumes created on that hosts and to use them as storage domains. For this you will need to create a new storage domain with the mount path
as gluster volume path.

i'm not using a hyperconverged/self-hosted setup, my engine is
located on a dedicated server and i used iSCSI storage for data
master domain. my hosts (for hypervisors and gluster storage) where
installed on top of centos7, not using oVirt Node.

does my setup make sense (it's only for testing)?
do i have to configure gluster hosts manually?
yes, you will have to do this manually .
Installing gluster packages have to done manually. Once gluster
packages
are installed you can create a gluster cluster from ovirt UI , add
gluster hosts and create volumes on them using the volumes tab.

i'm sorry, but i'm missing all these "Gluster Volumes" UI components
that are mentioned in
http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/gluster/gluster-support/.

the tabs i see for my storage cluster are "General", "Logical
Networks", "Hosts", "Services", "Permissions". as i said "Services" is
empty, is that a problem?

what's wrong?

thx
matthias

Does your cluster has both virt+gluster enabled or only virt ? If only
virt you will not be able to see them.

If the cluster has both virt+gluster service enabled or only gluster
service enabled you should be able to see them.

my storage cluster has only gluster service enabled

I think you have selected the cluster and you are referring to the sub
tabs for that cluster. There should be a main tab called 'Volumes' which
is present. Are you not seeing that? I have attached screenshot for the
same.


thanks for the screenshot, now i know how it should look like. i'm attaching my screenshot. i'm missing a couple of elements, especially "Cluster Node Type" (i don't have that in my VM cluster either). is there an obvious explanation? next step would be to recreate the gluster cluster with "clean" oVirt Nodes. maybe my storage hosts are botched, i had glusterfs 3.10 packages installed on one of them previously

thanks a lot so far
matthias

During the engine-setup when application mode was asked hope you have set "Both" .
