Can't you query databse? "select * from user_vm;" some thing like this?

Do i have to create gfs or extfs on that lvm or i can just present logical vol itself (/dev/mapper/vg01_vol01)?

Re: Cloudstack with iscsi storage
One more question, if i have a NAS and i have presented raw LUN to all my kvm hosts using iscsi, do i still need to setup clvm or can i just use iscsi target and cloudstack will use it as primary storage? I am getting confused with this clvm/shared mount, in cloudstack 4.3 for kvm hyperviser do i really need to setup clvm or shared mount? instead can i directly give storage device ip for primary storage configuration of course all my kvm hosts can talk to storage and can see iscsi LUN?

CLVM
Does any one know how to setup CLVM and use it for primary storage on centos6? I have a iscsi SAN attached to my hyperviser (kvm) hosts and wanted to use that LUN as primary storage and for kvm hyperviser i think i have to use some kind of clustered vol mechanism. Please share if any one have done already. Thanks, Ram

Re: Cloudstack with iscsi storage
Geoff, Thank you that is what i wanted to have. I am planning to have NFS for secondary and CLVM for primary as cloudstack doesn't support direct SAN, not sure is there any other solution to present my SAN luns to all the VM hosts.

Re: Cloudstack with iscsi storage
Thanks for the video, i have one more question, So CS/management server needs to have access to storage network? i have two networks one for storage and one for regular traffic, my hyperviser hosts can connect to storage but my management server doesn't have connectivity to storage, i am wondering does management server needs to have connection to storage (primary) Ram On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 8:57 PM, Matthew Midgett wrote: > How about a video?

Ok thank you, can I use nfs? Which one gives better performance nfs or clvm?

Cloudstack with iscsi storage
Hi, I am trying to setup a private cloud using cloudstack with ISCSI storage as primary storage, my 1. Do i need to create a filesystem on top of iscsi lun to use it as primary storage or just need to present a raw lun to hyperviser? 2. If i have multiple hosts as VM hosts, do i need to present iscsi luns on all those hosts or one storage hosts should be fine? can i use this storage host as VM host? 3. I have storage on different network, so does management servers or control server neeeds to have access to storage network? Thanks, Ram
