Ovirt is fully compliant with iSCSI protocol. So the possible disadvantages and limitations are those of LIO/targetcli.

Obviously, you must consider performance because most SANS are backed with dedicated controllers with plenty of RAM cache backed by BBU (Battery Backup Unit). You can replicate these features and enable write-back using dedicated RAID controllers with their own BBUs. The use of multipath and UPS is also really advisable. Don't use RAID software if you want performance and reliability.

Hi Guys,

I am using Ovirt4.3 with 5 hosts and SAN for 10 years and now looking
for upgrade to it on latest version.

Now i want to use server as storage instead of SAN due to economic
reasons. So, i have used tgt/target-cli and created LUNs for storage
and access through iscsi and everything seems well.

Would it be a good solution? Also what could be possible limitation
and disadvantage over to SAN box?

Thanks.
