Not sure). - It may relieve the need for NFS altogether (if you are using some other storage technology) - It will make sharing the domain more difficult across (put your favorite item here - data centers, products, continents...) - It will simplify the code in some areas.

Re: [ovirt-users] ISO domain question
Looks like a pretty old request, too… if I may ask, is this a complicated technical change, or is it just lower priority than other open issues?

Re: [ovirt-users] ISO domain question
So would have to create a new SD (I'm using Gluster-based hyperconverged) and then create the symlink in the new mount in the subdirectory you named? Maybe I'll just rsync the ISO files into there... Thanks anyhow... Seems like there should be an easier way to consume an external existing repository.

Hello everyone, I have the other question. I need change the iso domain storage to a new ovirt host. What I do this?

[ovirt-users] ISO domain question
I’d like to utilize a pre-existing NFS-available ISO repository we have, instead of creating an oVirt-specific one. This repo is of course used for other purposes, so it cannot be devoted to oVirt alone. We have successfully used this NFS resource in VMware, but cannot see how to do the same in oVirt… Is it possible? Or must oVirt maintain its own? ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
