Hi,

We currently use oVirt on two hosts that connect to a shared storage
using SAS. In oVirt this is a "FC" storage domain. Since the warrantly
on the storage box is ending, we are looking at alternatives.

One of the options would be to use gluster and use a "hyperconverged"
setup where compute and gluster are on the same hosts. We would probably
end up with 3 hosts and a "replica 3 arbiter 1" gluster volume. (Or is
another volume type more recommended for this type of setup?)

I was wondering what the expected performance would be of this type of
setup compared to a shared storage over FC. I expect the I/O latency of
gluster to be much higher than the latency for the SAS connected storage
box? Has anybody compared these storage setups?

Regards,

Rik
