Re: [one-users] datastore layout question
Hi Steve, Normally If I have to use NFS based shared hosting then I mounted /var/lib/one directly on all nodes instead of mounting datastores seperately. Else recently I configured multiple OpenNebula Nodes with local /var/lib/one directory added one Node just for backup and sync only datastores of all nodes on that backup node. So that I can easily live migrate VMs to that backup Node from any node. It worked well for me. Pros: 1. Speedy managing instances as it uses local storage. 2. Live Migration works 3. Very Low cost compare to Fiber infrastructure 4. No need for separate Network storage as backup node can work as OpenNebula Host. Cons: 1. It cannot be realtime sync but you set cron for every minute 2. Need to monitor syncing.

Thus far it seems that I am forced to set up the datastore path as /var/lib/one/datastores/ So that means I have to NFS export datastore #102 to all VM nodes with exactly that path (/var/lib/one/datastores/102) and then as long as the /var/lib/one/datastores path is there on the VM host the directory /var/lib/one/datastores/100 will be made when the first VM is launched. All of this works just fine but it does mean that I have to be careful every time I reset the cloud to make sure that the image datastore is created as datastore #102. If I ever end up changing the number for whatever reason I will have to change all the mount points all across the cluster. Has anyone ever figured out a better way to deal with mounting a shared NFS data store? Steve Timm -- Steven C.

[one-users] Queries regarding Storage Backend for DataStore
Hi, I am planning to setup OpenNebula 4.10 for Cloud Hosting. In beginning I will be hosting 50 VMs of 2 vCPU with 40GB SSD Storage and OS will be Linux. - Very first is how actually these datastore works in comparison with Cinder and Glance of OpenStack ? - Which Datastore I can put on faster connectivity and which on slower? - Suppose I launched 2 VMs from one image, where the images are stored of Both VMs? In OpenStack I need to create Volume and attached as a RootDisk to instance, how should I go ahead in OpenNebula? - How to calculate required IOPS to decide Storage Backend eg. Number of Drives, RAID level, Connectivity, etc. - I was planning to use iSCSI with Nexenta based storage. Is that ok or should I go with Ceph ? will Ceph or NFS give performance ? - Any suggestions to design the storage backend for DataStore. - Do I need fiber connectivity between Compute Nodes and Storage ?
