Gluster and RHEV - Square pegs and round holes.

Hello, I have 4 hosts in my test cluster and I am trying various ways of setting up RHEV 3.1. I am wondering about the new gluster capabilities of RHEV and am wondering how to use the local storage on my cluster as a gluster volume.


I can think of two ways:
1) run gluster along side the hypervisor
2) run gluster in a virtual machine with the local disks attached.

I didn't try option 1) yet but I had a go with option 2) and hit some problems. https://access.redhat.com/discussion/attaching-local-sas-devices-vms Can someone give me some pointers on how I should set this up. Possible caveats? P.S. The Servers are HP GL380 Gen8 servers with 7x 600GB sas disks and 1x 100GB ssd. I have a 10G and a QDR Infiniband network. I am using an Oracle 7320 ZFS appliance over NFS as primary storage domain. Thanks, Andrew
