The VMs are basically as stock CentOS 7x as you can get. There are so many layers to deal with in HCI it's difficult to know where to begin with tuning. I was focusing mainly on gluster. Is it recommended to do tuning directly on oVirt host nodes as well such as I/O scheduler and tuned-adm profiles etc?
