[Users] Use Host

2014-02-21 Thread Maurice James
Can someone explain what is the purpose of Use Host is when creating a new 
storage domain?

If the NFS host is remote and not part of the cluster, why do I have to choose 
a single cluster host to attach it to.
Does this mean that if that particular host gos offline (turned off) that other 
cluster member will no longer be able to access that nfs storage?

The host you choose is used to make the initial mount, test the volume, and 
create some initial directory structure and files for the backend. Doesn’t much 
matter in my experience, but can be useful if you want to avoid doing the work 
on a busy host.

Once it’s been added to the cluster, it gets mounted on all your host nodes and 
doesn’t matter anymore.
