12.3. Optimizing Red Hat Storage Volumes to Store Virtual Machine Images

Optimize a Red Hat Storage volume to store virtual machine images using the Administration Portal.
To optimize a volume for storing virtual machines, the Manager sets a number of virtualization-specific parameters for the volume.

Important

Red Hat Storage currently supports Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.1 and above. All Gluster clusters and hosts must be attached to data centers which are compatible with versions higher than 3.0.
Volumes can be optimized to store virtual machines during creation by selecting the Optimize for Virt Store check box, or after creation using the Optimize for Virt Store button from the Volumes tab.
